Ana de Armas stunned fans on her socials this week, donning custom-made Louis-Vuitton gowns as she prepared to attend prestigious events. The actress, who detests any media attention that isn't about her work, was an Oscar nominee for Best Actress.
Ana de Armas inspired a comment section full of praises this week when she posted a mesmerizing thread of black-and-white photos in her hotel room. Tagging all those who helped her prepare, the pictures depicted de Armas in a stunning spaghetti strap dress with floral and geometric designs.
Her stylist, Samantha McMillen, posted full-color photos of the actress--revealing the "stained glass" fabric of the garment--posing in a different venue. De Armas was attending the Vanity Fair Oscars Party that night.
She left her full hair down and middle-parted, with only an elaborate teal ring to accessorize. Two days prior, de Armas attended the Academy Awards ceremony in another custom Louis-Vuitton gown, specially made for the "Blonde" starlet, as her stylist explained:
"This gown was very special. It took over 1000 hours to make and is completely hand-beaded. If you look closely it's like morning dew on falling rose petals…."
The day after the Academy Awards, de Armas couldn't help but express her gratitude to the people who ensured she was breathtaking on a momentous evening. She shared an appreciation post for her beauty team, referring to them as her "team of unicorns that helped me dance my way onto my first Oscars carpet. THANK YOU!" she wrote.
As an Actress, Ana de Armas Faced Struggles in Finding Privacy for Herself
De Armas' career, fully supported by her parents, began in Spain. She gained fame as a film and TV star in the country and became accustomed to the unwanted attention of the paparazzi. However, it was somewhat exacerbated when she came to the U.S.
De Armas was in a relationship with Ben Affleck—now married to Jennifer Lopez—which ended in early 2021; however, the former couple struggled to even enjoy walks on the beach without the incessant presence of invasive photographers.
De Armas never wanted any public attention, especially on her love life, if it wasn't about her work; she found it upsetting and, more so, frightening. She noted how there's little protection for celebrities from paparazzi photographers who lack restraint and respect for privacy.
Still, it was her experience with them that helped her connect with her character, Marilyn Monroe, in "Blonde." Her most recent and upcoming project is the "John Wick" spin-off film "Ballerina." Though her primary vocation has been acting, de Armas is also looking to work behind the scenes and produce.
