Lupita Nyong’o an Oscar winner was really looking outstanding in a creamy halter top Calvin Klein gown festooned with pearls at the 2015 Academy Awards last Sunday. The gown’s designer, Francisco Coast, got a call from Lupita’s agent notifying her that the $150,000 gown covered in 6,000 natural pearls was stolen from Lupita’s room at the posh London Hotel on Tuesday. Story continues after cut.................
Most stars who attend big events are usually dressed by top designers who want their unique, one-off pieces back after the event is over and usually within 48 hours. Here is her statement:
“We got a call at about 11:30 last night from someone at the London Hotel about a high value dress that was stolen from a hotel room,” Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Officer John Mitchell told The NY daily News. To complicate matters further, Lupita couldn’t file a police report because the gown didn’t belong to her. Klein had to file a report himself.
“It was so much fun to create this dress,” Coast told Yahoo Style. “We talked about it being fluid and liquid. I wanted it to be an homage to the sea.” The police said it would be difficult to track down a suspect because so many people had access to Lupita’s room — stylists, friends, managers, makeup artists, hangers-ons, hotel maids, etc. Gossip tabloid TMZ reports police are reviewing hotel surveillance video from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. when Lupita wasn’t in her room.
