Who doesn’t like a lady in red?!

On Saturday 19th October 2013, the adaptation of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie‘s best selling novel Half of a Yellow Sun premiered at the 57th BFI London Film Festival at Odeon West End, London, UK.

For the premiere, the Nigerian author sizzled in a red dress. She styled the dress which features an edgy cut-out on the skirt, gold drop earrings and gold sandals.

She completed the look with red lipstick as well as a rich Nigerian hairstyle famous in the 60s and 70s.

Recently, there has been international attention on the threaded hairstyle. It’s no wonder Chimamanda chose this look.
