Lupita Nyong’o hit the red carpet for the premiere of Disney’s Queen of Katwe looking like a real life Disney princess.

The Kenyan stunner who plays the mother of a young Ugandan chess champion in the movie donned a gorgeous purple Elie Saab gown.The look gave us a flashback to her epic cinderella moment at the 2014 Oscars.

We’re also loving her matching gele turban, further proving that no one rocks a head wrap like Lupita. She then completed the regal look with gorgeous teardrop earrings.

Lupita Nyong’o is good for delivering a breathtaking fashion moment worthy of pause and celebration — and this look is certainly no different.
