Janelle Monae shows that an old tried and true classic never really goes out of style with her latest look.
The “Electric Lady” singer posed at the premiere for her latest film feature, “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery,” in London, England, Thursday night in a rather bold choice. Her attire consisted of a multicolor plaid overcoat that featured hues of white, red, blue, and brown with thick white outlining holding the piece together. Also, the coat had a double-breasted design and sharp shoulders that added definition to her torso. On the lower half, she threw on a pair of brown ankle slacks with a big cuff that exposed her white socks. Underneath, Monae popped on a crisp white button-down teamed with a black tie for a seamless, relaxed, yet fun suited moment.
While her outfit was quite appealing, her hairdo should also be a topic of interest here. The Kansas City native opted for ginger tresses pulled into two neat buns. The style added a fun quirk to her ensemble and a pop of color.
The “Pynk” singer decided to finish off her suit with a pair of black and white strappy heels. The shoes had a heel height of approximately an inch and a half and added a sturdy block element that grounded this outfit perfectly. Monae played with the socks and sandals trend that created interesting contrast juxtaposed to her criss-cross straps.
Janelle Monae has a unique and otherworldly sartorial taste. From wearing vagina pants to polished tuxedos (her signature) to dramatic Thom Browne gowns with cascading skirts, Monae also finds a way to wow the fashion masses with her creativity and ingenuity. When she’s not on red carpets, she wears edgy bikinis, bedazzled leather separates, and sleek mini-dresses that help her bolster that reputation.
The Screen Actors Guild Award winner is known for songs like “We Are Young,” “Yoga,” and “Make Me Feel,” but she has also made a name for herself within fashion. She has appeared in campaigns for brands like Tiffany & Co., Gap, and Ralph Lauren.
