The event was undoubtedly a beautiful spectacle, where the glam of a night out was seen in a range of moments from the smiling dress rehearsals to the red carpet finale. The last event’s most discussed look was? Was it the look that was absolutely timed to not only please the audience but also to make them debate the next possible look? The birth of the fashion trends of spontaneous past occurrences!
The pictures showcased Nicola in a fabulous silky gown with the radiance of her moonlike complexion and her fire-like hair adding even more drama to the already dramatic surrounding. The photo shoot was not just about the final look. And her posing, the glamorous yet human moments were included just like the ones that made the events more interesting. A picture of a simple bowl of pasta might appear to be less than glamorous but it could not be more relatable to a pre-red carpet ritual that directly resonated. Another captured her laughing hilariously, a genuine smile that won the audience.
Before long, Roberts’ fans were giving their compliments and expressing their admiration for her. Most of them indicated to her laugh that was heard through the pictures. “The smile on slide 5 oh my god,” one person commented and the response was, “I can totally see how much happiness is in that particular shot.” Another one just said, “Look at your happy face,” and it was again about showing the warmth coming from the professional glamour.
And of course, the pre-red carpet pasta turned into a topic of discussion by itself. ‘The pasta & DC before the red carpet is such a vibe,’ one person wrote in response, and thus the observer was elevating the almost informal ritual among all the extravagance of high fashion. Another fan remarked, ‘not a nicola post unless there’s a picture of pasta in there somewhere,’ which is quite recognizing the fact that pasta is a delightful and recurring theme in Roberts’s social media shares.
The conversation though, was not only about the food or the laughter. The outfit was another main topic that received praises and was one of the factors that drew so much attention to the fashion scene. ‘My life changed last year when these event pictures were released,’ one ardent follower cried out, emphasizing the everlasting effect of the look. Others called the clothes ‘gorgeous’ and remarked on how Roberts embodied a modern Hollywood glamour. ‘You really do bring out such a powerfully modern day touch of that pure golden age of hollywood beauty, grace & glamour,’ read one especially profound message.
