Needless to say, all eyes are on Yara Shahidi. Despite wearing many hats at the age of 17—actress, academic, and activist among them—the Grown-ish star looks nothing short of poised and polished at virtually all times. And tonight’s 2018 SAG Awards ceremony was no exception.
Shahidi stepped out in a custom Ralph Lauren jumpsuit with a sleek, strapless silhouette and sculptural train, complementing her directional fashion look with a dose of fresh beauty that underscored her ever more confident red carpet ethos. With her natural curls worn in a cloud of buoyant ringlets worthy of Diana Ross, she simmered with disco-worthy drama.
And letting her luminous skin show through, she opted for healthy swirls of bright blush on the cheeks and subtle flicks of liner along her almond-shaped gaze. Always one to inject her look with a punch of color, she saturated her lips with a bold burgundy pigment that was softened around the edges. But while Shahidi makes a compelling case for a scene-stealing statement mouth, this wunderkind’s defining characteristic will always be her contagious charisma.
