- Michelle Yeoh wore a black Haute Couture gown at the SAG Awards 2023.
- The gown was from Schiaparelli’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection.
- The dress is eliciting a range of responses on social media.
On Sunday, February 26, Michelle Yeoh showed up at the SAG Awards 2023 with her style game on point, and her gown was undeniably eye-catching.
The sci-fi movie Everything Everywhere All at Once’s Evelyn, played by the 60-year-old actress, won her the SAG Award for Best Performance by a Female Actress in a Leading Role, but the entire cast was deserving of recognition.
The awards ceremony this year was held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles, and the Malaysian native looked to the high-fashion catwalk for inspiration. Styled by Jordan Johnson Chung, Yeoh wore a black Haute Couture gown from Schiaparelli’s Spring/Summer 2023 collection.
The figure-flattering dress is unquestionably unique thanks to the front fringe made of yellow sequins. Chung complemented the iconic look with hanging earrings, a black watch, and pointed black Christin Louboutin heels.
Naturally, the distinctive design is eliciting a range of responses on social media. Fashion connoisseurs have praised the garment, but detractors have pointed out several critical—and possibly humorous—details regarding the fringe.
“She looks stunning, but the dress it’s giving my hamsters cage vibes,” writes one Instagram user, while another compared it to “packing filler.” A third compared it to pasta, posing the query: “Are those French fries or rotini?”
