Partnered with her sky-high footwear, the "Kung Fu Panda 4" star donned a pinstriped suiting-inspired ensemble. Cast in black and white hues, Awkwafina's look consisted of an oversized blazer accompanied by what looked like a romper with baggy shorts. Turtleshell buttons offered the look a preppy touch. Gold pendant necklaces were stacked atop one another to offer Awkwafina's look a bit of shine.
