On October 21, Lupita Nyong'o attended the GO Campaign Annual GO gala looking like royalty with an intricate headpiece made of cowrie shells.
For centuries, cowrie shells have had a deep cultural and spiritual significance in many African cultures and were once even used as currency across continents. The beige shells have also been used to create stunning jewellery, head accessories, and other wearable pieces. Recently, Lupita Nyong'o stepped out with an intricate cowrie shell headpiece that looked fit for royalty.
You can zoom in closely to see the strings of amber and clear, tiny beads that connect each shell to the netted cap. The shells did not cover every inch of the mesh: Lupita's crown was adorned by just a ring of shells and below, you can see the netting of her cap and the cowrie shells on the entire piece. Nyong'o returned to the bald-headed baddie life at the start of the year after having sister locs.
