Oscar-winning actress and fashion plate Lupita Nyong'o is used to making bold style choices. So when she dressed for the futuristic-fashion-themed 2016 Met Gala, she didn't have a low-key hairstyle.
Nyong'o seemed to channel the stylings of Whoville (the fictional Dr. Seussian town) with her gravity-defying 'do.
Possible inspiration Cindy Lou Who (from 2000's How the Grinch Stole Christmas):
Another angle:
We wonder, what is going on underneath all of the hair to keep it up? How did she travel to the event with that on top of her head? Or, maybe those should just remain fashion mysteries.
