The Scandal actress arrived at Sunday’s red carpet showing off her baby bump in a strapless, silky violet gown designed by New York-based designer Wu.
“Kerry and I have been friends and great collaborators since the beginning of my career. It was an honor to create a custom dress for her to wear to the Academy Awards,” Wu told Pret-a-Reporter via email.
