Beauty Break: Tony Awards Best Dressed

by Nathaniel R

BERNADETTE PETERS, LESLIE ODOM JR, JEREMY POPE

The following stars are presented In no particular order, just the looks we loved the most on Tony night. Turtlenecks are definitely back for men as is lots of color (which has been decades in coming and for which we could not be more grateful) and as with the Emmys, basic black for women is gaining renewed force. 

Fashion is of course highly subjective and what looks great on one person could well look hideous on other but that's why it's fun to gawk at and think about. Which were your favourite looks from the big night?


THE LOVELY LAURA LINNEY, LYNN NOTTAGE, AUDRA MCDONALD

Audra McDonald also wins "best hair" of the evening.


JANE ALEXANDER, JEREMY O. HARRIS, B.D. WONG
MARY LOUISE PARKER, ZAWE ASHTON, DAPHNE RUBIN-VEGADARREN CRISS, ANNALEIGH ASHFORD, TOM STURRIDGE
SONJA TAYEH, JAKE GYLLENHALL, ANDREW BURNAP

Jake Gyllenhaal should always wear pink. Who knew?

JANE ALEXANDER, JEREMY O. HARRIS -- Winners

ANNALEIGH ASHFORD, TOM STURRIDGE - Nope

Pink is very delicate. You really need to watch for the spots in the crotch area.

Sheryl Lee Ralph was my best dressed

The Bernadette Peters gown is very Bernadette Peters and that's style, baby.

Who the fuck nominated Tom Sturridge? He can't act for shit.

Tom Sturridge was FANTASTIC in Sea Wall / A Life -- incredibly moving. Made me cry both times I saw it.

I saw a blog post about Tony outfits this morning. Every single outfit looked terrible. I can honestly say I've never seen a more boring and safe group of stars. Maybe I'm just lured by the glitz and glamour of the Oscars.

Jake and Jeremy for me. I guess I'm a sucker for men in pink ;)

thevoid99 -- you've obviously never seen him on stage :)

Think Pink--channeling Kay Thompson from Funny Face.

PS--Jeremy Pope, please marry me xox

Not strictly fashion related, but Rapp and Pascal singing Rent in formal wear was a very "record scratch" type moment.

September 27, 2021 | Registered CommenterArkaan

I've always liked Aaron Tveit and I'm glad he's a Tony winner, but that white tux was awful.

September 27, 2021 | Registered CommenterStephenM

Jane Alexander looked incredible!!

September 28, 2021 | Registered CommenterAndrew Carden

Bernie Peters is AGELESS. Period.
