Tiffany Boone attended the Dec. 9 premiere ofMufasa: The Lion Kingin a beaded Balmain gown.
Onscreen, Boone is the voice of the lioness SarabiQueen of the Pride Lands and mother to Simba.
Her performance needed gravitas, and so did the red carpet gown commemorating it.
Before she even put it on, she considered it a “work of art.”
Boone’s bold red lip came first.
Boone worked with makeup artist Nadia Moham and hair stylist India Hammond on her premiere glam.
This work of art didn’t need to compete with loud accessories.
Then came the complementary glam.
When hairstylistIndia Hammondfirst got a glimpse at the dress, she immediately suggested an extra-long braid.
The idea started with more volume on top than the final result, which cascaded down Boone’s back.
Boone’s accessories played off the tones of red, yellow, and blue in her gown.
The goal: to complement her dress without overpowering it.
Her beauty look also revolved around a single, impactful moment.
“Everything was really around complementing the dress but not overpowering the dress totally,” she says.
Boone’s dress was coated in hundreds of beads.
At the theater, Boone stood onstage alongside the entire cast as director Barry Jenkins gave an emotional introduction.
She also felt the gravity of the moment.
Boone could immediately sense it connected with an audience member right next to her.
This night was worth the wait.
Boone left for the premiere wearing the “most special gown.”
