The "12 Years a Slave" star's Oscar dress, made from 6,000 pearls, was taken from her hotel room. The $150,000 pearl-covered gown worn by Lupita Nyong’o at this year’s Oscars has been reported stolen.
Stolen pearls were returned tow days after stolen on Friday by the thief, who tipped off celebrity news site TMZ.com after finding out that the pearls on the dress were fake. According to TMZ the thief took the Calvin Klein dress from Nyong'o's hotel room on Wednesday after finding the door ajar. The Kenyan actress had worn the dress adorned with 6,000 pearls to Sunday's Academy Awards in one of the most commented looks of the night.
