Michelle Yeoh celebrated a historic Oscars win on Sunday. During the 95th annual ceremony in Los Angeles, Yeoh won Best Actress for “Everything, Everywhere, All at Once,” making her the first Asian actress to win the award.
“For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibility,” she said in her acceptance speech. “And ladies, don’t let anyone ever tell you you are past your prime.”
The 60-year-old was a vision in Dior Couture. Her white gown was accentuated by dainty feathered fringe. The actress accessorized with a diamond headband, ring and chandelier earrings by Moussaieff, which were paired with a silver Richard Mille watch. Stylist Jordan Johnson Chung curated Yeoh’s look.
