Lupita Nyong'o: Vogue, Oct 2016
Stunning. I particularly think it's genius to put the word LOVE that big, because you can't possibly look at this and not think, "OMG I LOVE THIS." It's beautifully lit, it's poignant, it's got depth, it's got color, it's got texture. It's the kind of thing that makes you realize why Mario Testino gets paid the big bucks.

I want to like this so badly, but they shouldn't have let her sit down in it for like 20 minutes before walking out here. The colors are good, but... that bodice also just doesn't work for me, OR for her. It's pinchy.

This is pretty, too. Simple but crisp.

In my imagination, she's about to break into "The Wind Beneath My Wings." Apt. It WOULD be cold in her shadow.

I like this, but I'm not sure about the skin pyramid. Also, let's all have a moment of silence to contemplate Ava DuVernay's handbag, and her and Gugu Mbatha-Raw's general fabulousness. This entire photo is, in fact, smoking hot.
Lupita et al
Okay, but that dress reminds me of the opening credits of Mannequin. And while I am always open to more Mannequin in my life, I don't usually look for it across people's chests.
