For the 76th Annual Tony Awards on Sunday, June 11 in New York City, Lupita Nyong’o wore a striking breastplate molded from her own body. It’s like the female version of George Clooney’s Batman & Robin Bat-suit (which is a compliment, by the way).
The Oscar-winning actor wore the sleeveless silver breastplate with a black tuxedo jacket and black high-waisted, wide-leg trousers. The bespoke backless breastplate, by Misha Japanwala, a Pakistani artist and fashion designer, is attached to Nyong’o’s body by a single chain that fastens at the back of her neck. The 40-year-old accessorized with silver jewelry, a black and silver clutch, and a chrome manicure, as well as shimmery eyeshadow, which she paired with a glossy berry lip. A graphic tattoo-like design adorned her head.
