Marsai Martin is making her mark on Hollywood, becoming the youngest executive producer of a major motion picture, Little, in history. But the Teen Vogue 21 Under 21 standout and our March/April cover star is quickly becoming one to watch in fashion, too. Thanks to her stylist Jason Rembert, Marsai regularly hits the red carpet in unforgettable looks, including a Pamela Rolland tulle frock at the American Music Awards and a Viktor & Rolf pastel confection at the 2018 Emmys. And she's just as stylish off the red carpet and on the set of Black-ish, where she plays the sharp-witted little sister, Diane Johnson, dressed in printed skirt suits, graphic tees, and her signature clear-lens frames. As the years pass, Marsai's style continues to evolve, as she ventures away from the trendy outfits of her childhood and moves toward timeless pieces that are bold, elegant, and full of personality.
