Kyemah McEntyre broke the internet last year with her incredible, Afrocentric prom dress.

She's now in her first year at Parsons the New School for Design in New York City, and she hasn't stopped creating.

Kyemah made her own dress to wear to the BET Honors ceremony where she was recognized as a rising influencer.

The dress was made of canvas. She designed and painted it herself.

The opportunity was a milestone for McEyntyre who wrote on her Instagram, "Walking down the Red Carpet in my own Design/Painting has always been a goal of mine, so for anyone that's sitting at home please never give up on yourself, or what makes you happy. The World is secretly waiting for new ideas."

She documented the evening on social media.

Kyemah is partnering with Bellovella to design a capsule collection. There's no word on a release date, but we'll certainly be ready.

Not only is Kyemah an incredible talent, but she's gorgeous.
