AOC follows up with Lupita’s entire fashion story and interview, lensed by Steven Meisel with styling by Edward Enninful.

For her next challenge Nyong’o will produce, and star in, an adaptation of Nigerian writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s novel ‘Americanah’. “I had never seen the African contemporary experience explored, celebrated and analysed in such a way,” she says of the impact the story had on her. “The observations she makes as a non-American black person about America are things that I had never articulated but had felt. I was just madly in love.” The project belongs to HBO MAX.

Note that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is very tight with Dior Creative Director Maria Grazia Chiuri and not for one quick season. Their relationship dates back to September 2016 when — for her debut collection with Dior — the creative director asked Adichie for her help. The now famous t-shirt reading ‘We Should All Be Feminists’ was a direct reference to the author’s TEDx talk on the future of feminism.
