the outfit balanced boldness and grace.
Lilly Singh lit up the Gold House Gala red carpet last night in a show-stopping sculptural gown by Indian designer Amit Aggarwal.
The annual event, now in its fourth year, honours Asian American and Pacific Islander leaders who have shaped American culture through activism, storytelling and innovation.
Lilly’s look was nothing short of extraordinary.
Her gown, a custom Moulded Crystalvein creation, merged futuristic structure with organic inspiration.
Crafted in metallic mineral jersey and detailed with pollen-inspired embellishments, the garment rippled with architectural drama while maintaining an air of elegance.
The bodice was a masterpiece of movement and restraint.
Sculpted lines curved around her silhouette, creating a hypnotic sense of flow.
A plunging illusion panel and one-shoulder detailing added complexity, while a dramatic hood drape crowned the look with goddess-like intensity.
Paired with sheer opera gloves and black strappy stilettos, the outfit balanced boldness and grace.
Amit Aggarwal, known for his commitment to eco-conscious innovation and structural couture, once again demonstrated why his designs stand at the crossroads of fashion and future.
This gown was not just worn, it was embodied.
Since becoming a YouTube star, Lilly Singh has long used her platform to push boundaries.
She recently founded HYPHEN8, the first dedicated network for South Asian YouTube creators.
It will handle direct advertising sales, optimise monetisation for creators, and broker brand-creator partnerships.
For Lilly Singh, it is a way to solve a problem she once faced.
She explained: “When I began posting on YouTube in 2010, there weren’t many resources to create content, especially for someone that looks like me.”
At the time, brands didn’t seem interested in reaching a South Asian audience but today, the media landscape is much stronger for South Asian creators.
She continued: “There are so many South Asians on this planet.
“When you have a South Asian creator, they know how to connect with that audience.”
“It doesn’t even necessarily mean that the brand or product has to be South Asian in nature.”
The likes of Mindy Kaling, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen attended the Gold House Gala.
Lilly Singh’s fashion choice at the Gala felt like an extension of her mission – disruptive, unapologetic and visionary.
As actors, musicians, filmmakers and authors gathered in Los Angeles to celebrate AAPI excellence, Lilly’s appearance served as a powerful reminder: true style is about more than clothes, it’s about identity, legacy and daring to redefine both.
