For the premiere of the film, which Ol directed, Nico wore a floor-length velvet gown that trailed behind her as she walked. The stunning dress was a forest-green shade that emphasized the Dumbo star’s gorgeous light-colored eyes. She also wore her light brunette hair in a half-up-half-down style with long braids.
The rising star opted for a natural look with her light make-up that consisted of pink rosy cheeks and clear lip gloss. Nico kept her accessories minimal with only a few gold rings and a bracelet around her mid-forearm. And she looked like such a natural while she strutted down the red carpet with her famous family!

Thandiwe has starred in countless hit films and TV shows from Crash, Westworld, All the Old Knives, and more. Nico’s own acting resume is certainly growing, and includes the 2019 Disney film, Dumbo, alongside legendary actors Danny DeVito, Colin Farrell, and Michael Keaton. She also starred in the 2021 film Reminiscence with Thandiwe.
