The 2023 Unforgettable Gala celebrates the Asian and Pacific Islander community, who have significantly contributed to entertainment, arts and culture.
Top honours went to Greta Lee’s for her break out film, ‘Past Lives,’ and Charles Melton for ‘May December.’
Greta Lee, is what I lovingly refer to as a “fashion switch,” because she can go from bold to muted from one red carpet to the next.
On this occasion she went minimalistic wearing a black ruched Anna Quan Isla dress with matching heels.
Charles Melton wore a Yohji Yamamoto Worsted Tasmania belted wool blazer which features a unique three belt design which he styled with Bode trousers.
If this is going to be Charles’ M.O. going forward into awards season, we are in for a treat.
Lana Condor kinda bit off more than she could chew with this black and silver Andrew Kwon dress.
Unfortunately this didn’t translate onto the red carpet, and the styling was only half the issue.
Dressed in Versace, Simu Liu’s floral appliqué suit jacket ensured that his status as one of the best dressed men on the red carpet continued.
A Jacob & Co. watch and David Yurman jewels completed his look.
Needless to say that Momona Tamada was one of my favourites on this red carpet wearing a tri-colour Carolina Herrera dress.
What a colourful splendour this was, with her fuchsia Jimmy Choo Azia sandals adding the cherry on the sundae.
When it comes to Auli’i Cravalho’s belted Monse dress, I think I have reached saturation point with regards to hooded dresses.
Jamie Chung’s Sau Lee Zafina embellished silver bra added a festive feel to her Sau Lee Indya skirt.
I don’t mind that she opted not to wear the blazer, as it looks really boxy on the model.
Were you a fan of Jamie’s bow?
Anna Cathcart also wore a Sau Lee look which presented more of a teen queen vibe.
Sherry Cola matched her red lip to her Balenciaga draped wrap dress from the Fall 2022 collection.
The ‘Joyride’ actress looks great, but I can imagine that this was one complicated dress to put on.
Poorna Jagannathan wore an Anita Dongre tabard featuring motifs inspired by lush tropics which spotlight India craft heritage.
I love how the look felt ultra-modern with the simple white shirt and her chic styling.
‘Never Have I Ever’ actress Richa Moorjani looked breath-taking wearing a traditional Seema Gujral design.
