Lewis, who has been seminal in understanding dandyism, said the attire on the carpet was generally underwhelming.“The lack of color, the lack of African print, even the absence of African designers. I said, ‘Where is the Black dandyism?’” she said. “No sartorial risks were taken.”

Big risks? Perhaps. Perhaps not. Brandon Tan, fashion director for Cosmopolitan, was satisfied.“A classic silhouette can be completely reimagined by something as simple as the color and fabrication of the textile, as seen on Henry Golding,” he said. “Inversely, a very classic gray wool can be totally remixed by the cut and silhouette like Walton Goggins’ kilt look by Thom Browne.”A few simply showed up in comparatively routine black tuxedos (hello James Corden) and questionable spins on the theme (Sorry, Halle Berry, but that was a lot of skin in the crotch area).

Coattails of varying lengths were a huge trend amid the sea of hats and head pieces anticipated ahead of the gala that brought together A-listers from the worlds of sports, entertainment, music, art, literature, politics and more to raise money for the Costume Institute.Black and white looks carried the night, with enough pops of color to keep it interesting.

Kevin Huynh, InStyle’s fashion director, also praised Domingo, who wore a huge Talley-esque collared blue cape first, then ditched the cape to reveal a pearled window-pane jacket he wore with dot accessories.

“As the undisputed king of the red carpet, his regal look was beyond appropriate for the night’s theme,” Huynh said. “He fully embodied the spirit of dandyism in not one but two statement-making looks from Valentino, and he aced it in terms of being unapologetically bold and flawlessly fanciful.”novel first published in 1965, but frequently challenged by critics because it includes teen sexuality. This version is also a coming-of-age story but takes place in 2018 and 2019 instead of the 1960s, and the couple at the center of the story is Black. The series debuts Thursday on Netflix.

“I think it does a good job at mimicking the energy and the intention of the book,” said Simone who had not read “Forever...” prior to this job.The protagonists, Keisha and Justin (played by Simone and newcomer Michael Cooper Jr.), meet at a New Year’s party, like in the book. The two knew one another as kids, but it’s been years since they’ve seen each other, and now there are romantic sparks.

Simone says that while yes, the show is about young romance and firsts, there’s plenty of character development too.“It was like, ‘Wow, I am the love interest, AND I have a story to tell while being the love.’” It’s really nice to not just be the girlfriend,” she said.
