Janelle Monae
You know her from: Singing, mostly, until she got a role in Hidden Figures and killed that too.
Why you're reading about her: Just as she's expanding her career, her style is evolving too—for her 2017 tour at least, she's replaced the suiting of public appearances past with big, bold gowns, always complemented by thoughtful and inventive hair and makeup. (Here, it's Elie Saab Couture.) This sort of creativity and effort and individuality is what we really appreciate.
