Maitreyi Ramakrishnan [1] celebrated the season three [2] premiere of "Never Have I Ever [3]" on the red carpet with her fellow castmates [4] on Thursday, Aug. 11, in LA. The actor, who stars as Devi Vishwakumar [5] in the Netflix series, wore a black satin gown by Bach Mai [6] for her big night.
While Ramakrishnan and her stylist, Joseph Cassell Falconer [7], often gravitate toward colorful pieces, they chose an edgier look this time around that showcased a more mature silhouette, featuring a halter neckline, draped detailing, and a thigh-high leg slit. Ramakrishnan's ensemble was complete with classic black ankle-strap sandals and a silver bracelet. She rocked a dark smoky eye, messy ponytail, and black french manicure to match.
Emerging American couturier Bach Mai has also dressed the likes of Venus Williams and Tessa Thompson [8]. At the "King Richard" premiere last November, Williams wore a silver metallic version [9] of Ramakrishnan's dress. That same month at the Gotham Awards, Thompson donned a Victorian-inspired strapless ball gown [10] by the designer, which she paired with leather opera gloves.
Since entering the scene just a few years ago with her breakout "Never Have I Ever [11]" role, Ramakrishnan has already impressed with her playful style [12] at events. For the 19th annual Unforgettable Gala in December 2021, she wore an intricate rainbow dress made from upcycled sarees [13] by Indian designer Ashwin Thiyagarajan [14]. More recently, the actor has continued to show off vibrant pieces while promoting the latest season of "Never Have I Ever," which dropped on Netflix Aug. 12. For a "Tonight Show" appearance on Aug. 9, she wore a whimsical Zimmermann minidress [15] covered in purple, pink, and blue florals.
