Mindy Kaling Feels Like She's Living a Dream When She's Wearing This 1 Designer

Mindy Kaling's not one to stay hush-hush about her favorite looks. Right before she hits the red carpet, she shares hilarious snaps on Instagram, explaining why she's so excited about her outfit. Her latest obsession is not a creation by stylist and costume designer Salvador Perez, though she wears his pieces frequently. Instead, Mindy opted for the sophistication of Elizabeth Kennedy.

The actress showed up to this year's Gracie Awards in a blue one-shoulder gown that featured a flattering ruched bodice and took a slight mermaid shape. Complete with Effy jewels and a Nicoli box clutch, her look was simply glamorous. But it's not the first time Mindy stunned in such a number.

Read on to see the cobalt and black dress she wore to this year's Oscars, also by Elizabeth Kennedy, and you'll immediately understand why she feels it's "such a dream" to slip into these standout designs. Oh, and don't miss the sweatshirt shelf that works as a backdrop in Mindy's snap — it provides quite the casual contrast.
