Wunmi Mosaku wore a stunning Ahluwalia & won her first BAFTA for ‘Sinners’

Wunmi Mosaku won a BAFTA last night! She won Best Supporting Actress for Sinners. I’m so happy for her. Mosaku is a British-Nigerian actress, but she lives and works in America now. Still, the British film industry wants to claim her as their own. I would too, you know? She’s a wonderful actress and a stunning beauty. Mosaku wore a custom look from Ahluwalia, a bold, electric blue gown with complementary blue eye shadow. Stunning.

Jessie Buckley also won a BAFTA and she also wore blue. This is Chanel and I hate it, but I haven’t liked anything Jessie’s worn throughout the awards season. She’s super-talented, but she has very rizz-free style.

Gracie Abrams also wore Chanel – this is new, from the Pre-Fall 2026 collection. She came to the BAFTAs as Paul Mescal’s date/plus-one. Since I don’t follow the ins and outs of Paul’s dating life, it surprised me to learn that this was his first time walking a red carpet with Gracie? Interesting. They’ve been together for almost two years. Mescal was there because he was BAFTA-nominated for Hamnet (he lost to Sean Penn).

    Wunmi’s dress was gorgeous. The Chanel were meh. Go Sinners and Wunmi!

      As a boringly straight middle-aged woman, I find her absolutely intoxicatingly beautiful. She doesn’t glow — she radiates. And she is so, so good in everything she’s in — I’m rooting for her all the way!

      I love that Jessie doesn’t pander to convention and homogenization. “She should dress more beautifully” smacks of “She should smile more.” She should dress however she wants! And I just love her face.

      I do love Gracie’s dress.

    This and the yellow dress for Wunmi *chefs kiss*

    Congratulations on the well deserved win!

    Gracie Abram’s plastic surgery face truly unnerves me. The fox eye/full Face of filler and Botox on someone they young is uncanny to me.

    Somehow I react more negatively to the you g stars who have altered their features than to a wonky facelift on an older actress.

      His hand on her ass in every picture unnerves me.

      Is that what I found so annoying about her? I think you hit the nail on the head.
      I like her dress and she is a cute girl. I don’t want to be rude but…the pouting, suckling in cheeks, head tilts, eye smoldering that she does seem so off putting to me.
      My kids enjoy her music so we’ve watched some of her interviews and performances. She seems so camera conscious. Is she the embodiment of the selfie generation or Instagram generation? Even her Hourglass cosmetics commercial that was supposed to be like easy breezy in the car was all SMIZE head tilt FIND THE LIGHT pout

    Wunmi looks amazing in that electric blue!

    Go Wunmi! Never heard of her before Sinners but will be looking out for her now, she’s so talented.

    Loved her speech and how beautifully she spoke to both Ryan Coogler and Michael B Jordan (on behalf of all the actors), she clearly believed the hell out of the film.

  6. Mei says:

    That shade of blue on Wunmi is absolutely heavenly, it makes my eyes so happy. I hope she had the best night and felt amazing because she looked it! The boob tassel was random and unnecessary though.

    Jessie isn’t a fashion girl in the normal sense, as long as she likes it that’s all that matters. The colour is lovely on her but to me she looks like she isn’t so concerned with the self promotion side of her job; maybe she just prefers to focus on her work instead. She’s certainly booked and busy enough!

    I actually like Gracie’s Chanel, it’s understated but also elegant, it’s a good dress for a plus one. I had zero idea they were an item though, this is cute. They both seem nice.

  7. Lightpurple says:

    So happy for Wunmi’s well-deserved win and that dress is spectacular on her.

    Wunmi’s dress is a gorgeous color. It’s very glamorous. The blue Chanel is giving me Star Wars, I could see Princess Leia in that and I’m surprised Chanel put so little effort into it. At least from the front, maybe the back looks better?

  9. Grant says:

    Wunmi looks incredible. That blue on her is stunning. I thought she was fine in Sinners but I was rooting for Teyana or Amy Madigan, who were much more memorable to me. Just my opinion.

    I like Jessie’s dress. Rizz-free, yes, but it looks comfortable and I’m intrigued by the fabric. Crushed velvet?

  10. East Villager says:

    This is a big opinion, but I think Wunmi is the most beautiful woman in the industry today. When she first appeared on screen in Sinners, I said aloud in the theater, “Who is that?!”

  11. Jane says:

    That couple posing looks bizarre. She looks like his accessory. An ascot and some woman literally shrinking herself for him. And that hand, very possessive.
