Michelle Buteau owned the red carpet at the New York City premiere of her Netflix hit show, Survival of the Thickest. Held on March 26, the event celebrated Season 2 of Michelle’s series, attracting celebrities, show stars, and A-listers. Amid the excitement, camera clicking, and celebrity slays, she was the moment.
But knowing how the comedian loves to make an entrance with confidence and style, we expected nothing less. So we had to share details about her fit.
Michelle Buteau Is The Epitome Of Main Character Energy At The ‘Survival Of The Thickest’ Season 2 Premiere
Michelle served major glam in a sparkling Todd Fisher black bodysuit that looked dipped in stardust. The belted waist accentuated her curves while the glittering fabric caught the light like a disco dream.
She took the custom look up a notch with matching sequined opera gloves that added a touch of vintage drama, a shimmering headscarf, and pointed black boots.
Her hair was big, voluminous, and wavy. And her makeup look glowed under the event lights.
Think 70s Donna Summer meets modern-day glamour girl, and you have the vibe of the star’s look. That’s right, it was the definition of main character energy. Michelle and her stylist, costume designer Keia Bounds, defintely understood the assignment with this fit.
As the star of Survival of the Thickest, Michelle brings her signature wit, charm, and fierce energy to the screen. So, we’re not surprised her outfit matched her dynamic personality. The show follows her journey as a plus-size stylist (Mavis Beaumont) navigating love, life, and career after a major breakup.
Like in real life, Michelle’s character knows how to turn heads and live life unapologetically.
