Wunmi Mosaku made a stunning appearance at the BAFTAs, receiving the Best Supporting Actress award for her portrayal in 'Sinners' while pregnant. She wore a captivating custom-designed gown by Ahluwalia that has captured widespread admiration since its reveal.
The one-shoulder gown, accompanied by a matching choker made from the same fabric, added a unique flair to her overall ensemble. Its architectural neckline and layered bodice contributed to a silhouette that appeared both dynamic and elegant. The dress featured a sweeping fringe hem that swayed gracefully with her movements, complemented by a subtle front split, and the rich royal blue hue beautifully contrasted with her complexion.
What enhances the charm of this look is its background story, as Wunmi is expecting her second child. Dressing for such a significant event requires careful planning and a proficient stylist. Shameelah Hicks played a pivotal role in orchestrating this fashionable moment, proudly highlighting her commitment to supporting British-Nigerian designers. Hicks emphasizes the importance of comfort and vibrant colors in Wunmi's wardrobe choices, stating, “We aim for a comfortable fit without resembling typical maternity wear.” The actress opted for Stuart Weitzman's strappy heeled sandals, emphasizing the challenge of finding stylish flat shoes during pregnancy and the value of having a resourceful stylist.
Her choice of accessories was understated yet chic, with Moussaieff jewelry featuring silver hoops and rings to maintain a clean aesthetic. Dionne Smith styled her hair in a sleek braided updo, showcasing both the neckline and shoulder of the dress, while Nigerian London-based makeup artist Joy Adenuga applied bold teal and blue eyeshadow that harmonized beautifully with the gown. The finishing touch was manicured nails by Lucy Tucker Nails.
With a BAFTA award in her hand, adorned in British-Nigerian fashion, and styled impeccably, Wunmi Mosaku had an unforgettable evening radiating elegance and achievement.
