She wowed in a custom-made blue evening gown by Prada. Made of blue silk, the Grecian-inspired dress had a low V neckline and a flared out skirt that overflowed with femininity. The colour was the most notable thing about this dress, and that’s only because it so magnificently brought out the chocolate hues of Lupita’s skin tone.
