5 Chic Looks You Need to See
Yara Shahidi gave us magical transformations while doing the promotional circuit for the new Disney+ film Peter Pan & Wendy, where she plays the first black Tinker Bell.
As told to People magazine, Yara recounted how she asked a thoughtful question to writer-director David Lowery before signing on to the project: “What do we want to accomplish with this remake of something that’s been done and is so beloved?”
The answer was something that brought her satisfaction and excitement. “The entire Disney team was committed to doing more than just swapping out ethnicities. It’s about telling a story that feels reflective of the times that we’re in.”

As for her version of the beloved pixie Tinker Bell, she said: “My take on Tinker Bell nods towards the classic feistiness that we love about her, that kind of overly expressive nature.”
She had to hold “180 different facial positions to help create the tiny, mostly voiceless character’s many expressions.”
The thoughtful scholar also mused about the importance of “light-hearted creativity” in taking on the role. “I think being Black and Brown actors, oftentimes our worlds and our work worlds are so serious. There can be a pressure to always be making a statement in everything you do.”
“While I can argue that there’s something really powerful about having a Black Tinker Bell, to be able to have a role where the job was fantasy was really an escape as an actor,” she added. “It reminded me how much I enjoy the creativity of my job.”
The 23-year-old actress showcased her creativity by going from one look to another with grace and aplomb as she continued to promote her latest project.
1. Magical in Alexander McQueen
At the world premiere of Peter Pan & Wendy in London, Yara gave the nod to Tinker Bell in a yellow Alexander McQueen dress with all-over bugle-bead embroidery.
She styled it with matching yellow pin-heel boots from the brand and long cornrows that showed off her stunning face.

She rounded out her look with a chic updo, silver eye makeup, and matching silver Comet boots from Bottega Veneta (available in gold at $4,500 at Neiman Marcus). These boots feature a woven mirrored calf leather construction, a pull-on style, side zip closure, square toes, and wedge heels.
