I don’t think anyone mentioned it, but I’m so glad the bright undereye look was back. If only for a moment because it was greatly under-appreciated😭

Also for the record, it 100% makes sense why this isn’t an event for Nic to go to alongside Ola. CFDA is a fashion industry event, not entertainment, sports, or general celebrity culture. The spotlight should be on the designer and muse in this case, O and Brandon Blackwood.

according to Aiyana Ishmael (style editor at Teen Vogue) there are no more black women at Teen Vogue

for those unaware, @aiyanaish wrote several of the articles about olandria at teen vogue. if y’all could show her some love & thank her for her amazing work! 🙏🏽

#olandria: once upon a dream

I’m literally so gagged wtf. I need to get ready for bed, but I’m still here😭😭

OLANDRIA LASHAE CARTHEN TO THE WORLD🤭🤭 #OlandriaxCFDAAwards #CFDAAwards https://t.co/epBmTRckcC

just realized what olandria’s look tonight reminds me of 😮‍💨

At times fashion has felt frivolous but Olandria has intersected fashion with education. She has centered her black culture and human empowerment to make a huge shift in how modeling and fashion can shift the focus of how we view beauty & societal expectations. #OlandriaxCFDAA

I’m getting emotional. The reisman’s spoke about how hesitant brands were to work with Olandria and she’s on that red carpet with the designer proudly standing by her side and a black designer at that!
