Melissa McCarthy and Rachel Sennott showed that fashion can be enjoyable with their accessories at the 2024 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
McCarthy, aged 53, attended the star-studded event in Los Angeles on Sunday, March 10, wearing a stunning black leather gown designed by Valdrin Sahiti. The floor-length dress had a plunging neckline, sharp shoulders, and a lion embellishment on the bodice. While McCarthy's outfit received high praise, it was her unique cannoli-inspired Kinza Winza clutch that became the talk of the town long after the party.
Sophie Anzaldo custom bedazzled a sweet treat for McCarthy. She shared a behind-the-scenes look on Instagram on March 11. Anzaldo hand placed thousands of gold beads on the casing and used silver gems for the filling. The accessory was finished with a pearl strap. McCarthy completed her look with a voluminous hairdo, dangling earrings, and spiky gold bracelets.
