Stolen Lupita Nyong'o's Oscar Dress Found
Lupita Nyong’o's oscar dress that was reported stolen few days ago from her Los Angeles hotel room has been found.
The L.A. County Sheriff's Dept. confirmed that West Hollywood Detectives received a call from a media representative, informing detectives they had received a call from an anonymous caller with information in regards to the stolen Calvin Klein dress. The caller advised detectives that it could be located in an abandoned bathroom on the second floor of the hotel. Apparently, the thief himself called TMZ on phone yesterday to tell them he had returned the dress, told them where to locate it but he also said the dress was a worthless fake! He says he took a few pearls off the dress and took them to the garment district in downtown L.A to see how much they were worth but to his unfortunate surprise, he was told the pearls were not real.
So, he put the '$150,000' gown in a garment bag that was inside a trash bag and took it back to the hotel leaving it on a 2nd floor bathroom adjacent to a fitness center, before calling TMZ. TMZ contacted the L.A. County Sheriff’s Dept. and gave them the info, they then went over to the hotel, retrieved the bag and found a garment bag with the dress inside. On the red carpet at the Oscar’s on Sunday, Lupita's Calvin Klein dress was said to be worth $150,000 because of the 6,000 expensive hand beaded pearls on it which probably inspired the thief to grab it at the slightest opportunity but to his horror, was told the pearls were fake as he was about pawning it for some quick cash.
