Tony Awards 2017: Cynthia Erivo Shuts it Down and Wraps it Up

BAM:

For TEN YEARS we’ve been saying that the red carpets of the world desperately need more head wrap and turban action. LOVING Miss Cynthia’s take here – especially since her wrap does what a good one should in a fashion situation: it completes her outfit. That dress is sparkly and on-point. We especially love the sprinkle of green among all the sparkle. It gives the dress a depth or interest it might not have otherwise had. And that’s our main quibble here: the dress is honestly just okay on its own. The neckline is out of proportion and the style is fairly basic overall. It needed serious styling to give it some impact. Fortunately, girlfriend (and her team) knew just what to do. No styling choice could have elevated this look as much as that head wrap.

Are we wrong to think the makeup’s a little off, though? Not sure the green eyeshadow is working .
