Lupita Nyong’o was honored at the Elle Women In Hollywood event and is also one of their eight chosen cover models for their November issue. The Kenyan-Mexican actress arrived at the event and walked the red carpet in a beautiful metallic brocade dress custom made by Lagos-born, London-based designer, Duro Olowu.

She paired the look with gold, metallic Brian Atwood cross strap sandals and a gold metallic clutch. Lupita must have loved this look, too, as she posted all her outfit in one detail shot to Instagram!

I love that she got into the illuminating trend with her makeup and gave us a sexy cat-eye for the occasion. Her hair was done in a high ponytail by Vernon Francois and it looks fabulous.
