Joaquina Kalukango’s TonyAwards night was one for the books, see how she got ready for the ceremony here:
night was one for the books. The Broadway star not only moved the audience with an emotional performance of ballad “Let It Burn” from Civil War-era musical, but earned a second standing ovation when she took home the Tony for best performance by an actress in a leading role in a musical.
On her big night, Kalukango looked every bit the gilded star wearing a gold beaded gown designed by her sister,. “My sister lives for all things African due to our culture, so we chose this fabric because it highlights true power, femininity, and a sense of royalty,” explains Kalukango Harris of the inspiration behind the dress, which was accessorized with matching metallic Valentino platforms and Swarovski jewels.
Kalukango wore an equally regal beauty look with gleaming skin, copper-smoked lids, and a sculptural braided hair look rich in symbolism. “We wanted to maintain Joaquina’s artistic African aesthetic and because braids hugely represent culture for African women, I started there,” says hairstylist, who braided Kalukango’s hair into cornrows before crafting a tall updo with spiraled shapes that held a deeper meaning.
