Forget the fashion police — call the real police, because Lupita Nyong’o’s pearl dress from the 2015 Oscars was stolen.
TMZ confirmed with law enforcement that the Calvin Klein dress, with an estimated value of $150,000, was stolen from Nyong’o’s hotel room at The London West Hollywood on Tuesday. A spokesperson for the Los Angeles sherriff’s department told Us Weekly that they are currently investigating the situation. “We are looking at every scenario; when the cleaners go to clean the rooms they do it with the door open so that’s a possibility,” the spokesperson said. “Currently we are still investigating, detectives are interviewing and looking for witnesses.”
And just in case you need a reminder of how gorgeous she looked in it, here’s a photo of Nyong’o wearing the custom-made gown on Sunday:
