The lack of a red carpet is no problem forCynthia Erivo, who has been pulling outall the stopswith her award show ensembles.
For the 26th Critics' Choice Awards this weekend, Erivo wore a custom-made gown fromVera Wang. Erivo's go-to stylist, Jason Bolden, shared a slideshow of the stunner on Instagram, writing: "Cynthia In Custom Vera Wang#waist#whatwaist@jveloz."
Erivo, who was nominated for her role inThe Outsider, was captured by Juan Veloz (who also photographed Regina King'sdazzling Golden Globes dress).
The custom Wang design included a black skirt cloaked in eggshell tulle that made up the bodice, sleeves and top layer of the skirt. The tulle included hand-crafted flowers and vines made with lace (that we swear they pulled straight from a fairytale book cover). The majestic look was completed withTiffany and Co.jewelry.
Erivo shared the look to her Instagram, using a quote from her designer: " 'I want people to see the dress but focus on the woman.' - Vera Wang@verawanggown@tiffanyandcodown."
Wang commented on Erivo's post, saying: "When I think of a modern multi talented artist, Cynthia comes to mind..... Thank you for all our collaborations and particularly, JASON BOLDEN and his support ! XXV."
Wang posted behind-the-scenes photos of the dress-making process, writing: "Inside-the-atelier: Crafting#CynthiaErivo’s custom#VeraWanggrown."
Erivo, who has already won an Emmy, Tony and Grammy award, is close to becomingthe youngest EGOT winnerever. She is set to star as Aretha Franklin in the third season of the TV seriesGenius, which will be premiering March 21.
Let's hope the nominations keep coming, so we can be gifted with more red carpet sensations.
