The young woman's appearance has sparked a wave of reactions online. While many celebrated Malia's unique style, saying "love her style" and praising her "classy look," others offered mixed reviews, including a claim that she "needs a wardrobe consultant."

A segment of onlookers criticized her ensemble, with one remarking, "Dressed like this for the red carpet? Tacky." Her simple gray coat was labeled "thrifty" by one user. One commentator admitted Malia's fashion sense has "indie" vibes.

Malia's first red carpet appearance was not just a step into the spotlight but also a stride in her burgeoning career in the film industry. At just 25, she has already carved out a space for herself, thanks to her role in the writers' room for Donald Glover's new Amazon series.
