for the Critics' Choice Awards. Now, the duo are back in action for the SAG Awards, where Nyong'o is nominated for Best Actress for her performance inIt's a big night for Nyong'o, and thankfully, François filled us in on exactly how he designed yet another show-stopping style."You don't often get to see women that look like Lupita or have similar hair textures — like the curly-kinky-coily hair textures — do something so glam and old Hollywood on the red carpet.
For references, François turned to the "hundreds of thousands of women of color that used to wear these hair styles," he explained. "Women used to wear hair like this to go do the laundry. We used old, traditional images."Working with Nyong'o's strapless gown in mind, the two decided on an Old Hollywood style that channeled classic glamour mixed with the new Hollywood innovation that François brings to his work.
"I'm quite an emotional hair stylist," he says. "It really is just prepping and then feeling the moment, feeling the hair, looking at the balance, and looking at how [Nyong'o] is responding." It's a dynamic that requires plenty of trust and willingness to experiment, which is probably why Nyong'o always ends up on the red carpet looking so damn good.
