Did The Actors On The Office Wear Makeup?

The postponement of the 2022 awards flavor influenced the expect that star stylist Kate Young put together for Selena Gomez to clothing at Sunday night's Screen Actors Club Awards.

"It feels strange to be and then tardily and just starting [with awards flavor]," says Young, who did a final fitting with Gomez on Saturday afternoon, Feb. 26. "It'southward been a long fourth dimension for everyone, so we talked a lot about elegant opulence, the thought of something that feels glamorous and fancy. I call up everyone is going to be excited almost dressing upwards."

The But Murders in the Building actress, attention her first SAG Awards ceremony as part of the Hulu show's nominated cast for outstanding performance by an ensemble in a comedy series, wore Oscar de la Renta to the event, a black velvet gown with puffed sleeves from the simply-debuted fall/wintertime 2022 collection past co-creative directors Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia.

"It'due south super flattering and feels very her," notes Young, who viewed the collection prior to its Feb. 17 release via video. "There's e'er that moment when someone puts on a wearing apparel and it's immediately apparent that this is the 1. The cutting is fun and feels aligned with Selena's manner."

Immature and Gomez first exchanged ideas via text, then did an early fitting one time information technology was confirmed the actress would attend the SAG Awards. "The pandemic has changed the dynamic of how stylists piece of work with clients," Young says. "When you've been on a big press run for a evidence or a picture, past the time you get to an awards show, y'all're typically seven dresses in; you lot've been talking a lot, and you're on a wavelength. And so for the SAGs, this felt similar a new conversation: 'Practise you want to be this girl, or would you rather feel like this girl?' But because she's nominated, we too wanted it to experience a little more special."

Gomez's look is paired with diamonds by Bulgari, including a high-jewelry Serpenti necklace, featuring two pear-shaped brilliant emeralds and diamonds totaling 37.04 carats ready in white gilded, and a high-jewelry ring that highlights a 9.89-carat cushion-cut Columbian emerald set in platinum.

"We actually wanted to do tons of jewelry, and [the ring] is a major emerald," Young says. "Together with the velvet, the expect feels really grand and over the top and interesting."

Gomez'south ensemble is finished with Christian Louboutin pumps, a clean, elementary blueprint that contributes to a feeling that's "elevated in a classic way," Young adds.

Also counting Margot Robbie, Dakota Johnson, Michelle Williams and Sophie Turner amidst her clients, Young says she typically eschews the idea of request a designer to create a fully custom gown, preferring to select either a look from a collection or to apply an embroidery or other detail seen in a collection as a jumping-off betoken for a custom blueprint.

"It's not the runway sample; they made this apparel custom for Selena, but it wasn't designed for her," explains Young of the dress which was made to perfectly fit Gomez without irresolute blueprint details.

"Oscar de la Renta didn't do a traditional track show, but even if they had, whether people have seen a dress before doesn't concern me. I'thousand not interested in request a designer to melt upwardly a custom dress just for the sake of doing custom; I retrieve it'southward of import that dresses relate back to what'southward on the runway. My chore is to take the best of what's available in the world of fashion and match it to these women."

That's precisely what she did for Gomez and her inaugural SAG Awards moment, Immature says: "It's the all-time apparel on the all-time daughter, and I recollect she looks actually good."
