Indya commanded attention in the shoulderless floor-length dress, which sheathed their slender frame.

Featuring cut-out sleeves, Indya commanded attention in the gown, with extravagant ruffle detailing on the sleeves and hemline.

They wore their raven tresses in sophisticated braids and finished off their show-stopping look with a slick of deep red lip.

Indya Moore made the list when the 2019 Time 100 was announced last week.

The list also included Dwayne Johnson, Brie Larson, Sandra Oh, Emilia Clarke, Glenn Close and Richard Madden.

Other stars were Chip and Joanna Gaines, Gayle King, Hasan Minhaj, Alex Morgan, Ryan Murphy, Mohamed Salah, Clare Waight Keller, Yalitza Aparicio and Lynn Nottage.

Pierpaolo Piccioli, Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins, Mᴀssimo Bottura, Tara Westover, Jeanne Gang, Emily Comer, Jay O’Nea and Marlon James made the cut too, along with others.

‘We all have teachers, some we know intimately, others who inspire from the page or the screen. This holds true even for the most accomplished people on earth. Our annual TIME 100 issue is filled with tributes from teachers to students; in many cases, the surprise is who is playing which role today,’ wrote TIME Editor-in-Chief and CEO Edward Felsenthal of this year’s TIME 100 list.

Felsenthal continues, ‘In many ways, these connections—forged across and among industries—are the heart of the TIME 100, which now, in its 16th year, is far more than a list. It is a community of hundreds of global leaders, many of whom support and challenge one another. And at a time when so many of our problems require cross-disciplinary solutions, they are also uniquely positioned to effect change.’

A Bronx native, Indya Moore’s mother is Puerto Rican and their father is from the Caribbean.

At the age of 14, Moore left their parents’ home due to what Moore describes as their parents’ transphobia, and entered into foster care.

Moore moved around frequently during this time, eventually living in all five boroughs of New York City.

After being frequently bullied, Moore dropped out of high school during their sophomore year.

Moore began working as a model at the age of 15, but eventually earned their General Equivalency Diploma (GED).

In an L’officiel interview with Pose co-star, Mj Rodriguez, Indya discussed how, despite identifying as non-binary, being seen as female means they are still subjected to the same “surveillance and scrutiny” as all women, and to a desire to use fashion to take back that power.

They said: ‘I feel like that about fashion. I feel like that about us having the autonomy to express ourselves.

‘I’m non-binary but I don’t really talk about it that much. I don’t feel like people really are there yet for understanding it, which I don’t mind, but I also acknowledge the way people see me as a woman.

‘And because I’m seen as a woman, a cis woman or binary presenting, people are going to hold me up to those same standards that women are held up to. ‘
