Is there anything she can’t wear?

Who is Lupita’s stylist? How does she keep being fabulous at every event that she is photographed? Lupita might be known for her breakout role in the critically acclaimed feature 12 Years A Slave but she is now winning style adorers by the gazillions every time she steps on to a red carpet.

Lupita Nyong’o’s style is bold, featuring very clean lines and typically, she wears solid colours which allow for an amazing contrast against her dark complexion. What makes us pay attention to Lupita is her effortless elegance, her A-list sense of flair and a smile so sweet it makes you want to cry. American stylist Micaela Erlanger is the magic hand behind Lupita Nyong’o’s endless dazzling array of glamourous outfits. Micaela Erlanger has also dressed A-list stars such as Michelle Dockery of Downton Abbey, Jaime Foxx and Michael C. Hall who the star of HBO series Six Feet Under.
