Jodie Turner-Smith, who unquestionably took home the award for best dressed at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year, is probably best known for her captivating lead role in “Queen & Slim.” She has also received praise for her ground-breaking work in “After Yang” and “Anne Boleyn,” which was the first time a Black actress had ever portrayed the Tudor queen on screen. Turner-Smith also contributed to the newest Star Wars film, “Acolyte.”

She has earned notoriety for her daring and cutting-edge red carpet attire. This notoriety is what made her the select choice to host the Fashion Trust Arabia Prize 2022 Awards. Turner-Smith’s red carpet style is arguably unmatched, with great attention to detail and vibrant colors for every look that she puts together with the stylist powerhouse duo made up of Wayman Bannerman and Micah McDonald. Switching it up every time, Turner-Smith never disappoints with the elegant, edgy and creative styles she displays on and off the red carpet.
