We can always count on Billy Porter to steal the spotlight [1] on the red carpet. The Kinky Boots and Pose actor wore fabulous shades of purple to the Vanity Fair Oscar Party [2] — and his handbag is so rude, we're actually loving it.
Billy's Oscars outfits definitely had a theme for the night — birds of prey slay. He wore a Giles Deacon Couture golden feather bodice [3] and voluminous, orange-printed skirt before changing into a head-to-toe purple look for the Oscars afterparty. Billy's afterparty outfit featured purple feathers on the neckline of his blouse with a dramatic cape, designed by Christian Siriano. He paired the extravagant top with lavender chinos, aubergine-coloured full-length gloves, and a Sokol Millinery wide-brim purple hat. For the shoes, Billy kept it surprisingly simple with black boots. But, he made sure to keep the look a bit controversial with a conversation-starting black leather bag donning the words "F*ck U Pay Me!" designed by ThesePinkLips.
Ahead is a closer look at Billy Porter's purple outfit, and his very naughty bag.
