How to dress like Awkwafina
With breakout roles in the films “Crazy Rich Asians” and “Ocean’s 8,” the best actress Golden Globe for “The Farewell,” and a role in the upcoming “The Little Mermaid” film, 33-year-old actress Awkwafina has cemented herself as one-to-watch in Hollywood.
In addition to her many on-screen accolades, the New York-born star has become something of a style maven. Known for her tailored suits and tomboy edge, Awkwafina’s red carpet looks are as cool as her acting resume. To create your own Awkwafina-inspired wardrobe, these are the style rules you need to follow.
