(Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I'm sure he's relieved he won; it would be VERY nerve-wracking to be in this position. If you're the only person on the Tonys ballot in your category, at least 60% of voters still need to cast a vote for you. Anyway, they did! She looks lovely; he looks a bit like a rumpled gilded age dandy but it's interesting and cool that The Row made some menswear for this event. ## Bernadette Peters in Bob Mackie ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343033658-1632705150.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Bernadette Peters attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Well! She looks like the star that she is, no? (Bob Mackie KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING.) ## Adrienne Warren in Miu Miu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343033572-1632707368.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Adrienne Warren attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She won! For playing Tina Turner in *Tina - The Tina Turner Musical* (how many Tinas could you write a musical about? I suppose Fey. But no offense to Bossy Pants, but Turner will certainly have better music.) She looks lovely! ## Audra McDonald (in Carolina Herrera) and Will Swenson ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342983395-1632704864.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Audra McDonald and Will Swenson attend the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Audra hosted the event, with Leslie Odom Jr, and I truly cannot think of two more qualified people for the gig. Audra looks, obviously, incredibly reasonable here. ## Laura Linney in Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342999262-1632704974.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Laura Linney attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She was nominated, in the same category that Audra was, and they both lost to Mary Louise Parker (coming up in a later post). This, too, is highly reasonable. It has a real Rich Widow in a Singer Sargent Portrait vibe, which works on her. ## Darlene Love ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342986626-1632704875.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Darlene Love attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Fabulous! Great neckline, fun sleeves, this all works! ## Sonya Tayeh ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342993523-1632704919.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Sonya Tayeh attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She won for choreography for *Moulin Rouge*, but I thought she won for costume design originally, which is a vote in favor of how cool and original she looks. ## David Alan Grier ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342986731-1632704886.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: David Alan Grier attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He also won! (For best featured actor in a drama, in *A Soldier's Play*, a play he starred in, in another role, as a young man.) I neglected to notice those trousers are plaid until just now, which is a very sharp look. ## Leslie Odom, Jr in Celine ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342989939-1632704897.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Leslie Odom Jr. attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This is very crisp and cool! ## Chester Gregory ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342991888-1632704908.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Chester Gregory attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Also cool.... ## Chester Gregory ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342998545-1632704963.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Chester Gregory attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) ...and comes with a good message. ## Clint Ramos ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342998123-1632704930.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Clint Ramos attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He's a costume designer -- most recently, he did the costumes for *Aretha* \-- and you can totally tell. (That is a compliment!) He designed this himself. I think it's very chic. ## Ato Blankson-Wood in Thom Browne ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342998143-1632704941.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Ato Blankson-Wood attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He's VERY handsome and this is, I know, intentionally shrunken-looking, but it might be TOO shrunken-looking? ## Darren Criss in Givenchy ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342998307-1632704952.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Darren Criss attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Sure, this is hard to argue with. ## Matthew Morrison ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1342999270-1632704986.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Matthew Morrison attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This might be slightly easier to argue with. (TBH, I don't hate it, though.) ## Robin de Jesus ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343000566-1632704996.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Robin de Jesus attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Sure! (Would you have given him a pocket square, though?) ## James Monroe Iglehart ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343033419-1632705138.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: James Monroe Iglehart attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) See? Who doesn't love a pocket square! ## Lin-Manuel Miranda ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002190-1632705008.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Lin-Manual Miranda attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This tux is SO classic that I wish he'd just taken it all the way to the end-zone and worn formal shoes, too. ## Tendayi Kuumba ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002251-1632705019.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Tendayi Kuumba attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She's in the David Byrne musical and I suspect her necklace is rad. ## Jacquelene Acevedo in Rani Zakhem ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002288-1632705030.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Jacquelene Acevedo attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She, too, is in *American Utopia*, and that cast understands accessories! ## Bobby Wooten III ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002304-1632705041.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Bobby Wooten III attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I did not expect a bucket hat at the Tonys! (He looks good, though.) ## Daphne Rubin-Vega ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002424-1632705061.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Daphne Rubin-Vega attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I mean! DREAMY. ## John Lithgow ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343002405-1632705051.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: John Lithgow attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He looks Lithgow-y. ## John Benjamin Hickey ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343003993-1632705072.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: John Benjamin Hickey attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He looks Hickey-y. ## Andrew Burnap ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343005030-1632705083.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Andrew Burnap attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He looks Burnap-y. (Actually I don't know him and so this might be a lie! But I couldn't resist the joke and also -- he looks handsome!) (He also won the Tony for leading actor in a play, so get it, dude. He beat a LOT of famous people -- Hiddleston, Gyllenhaal, Blair Underwood, and Tom Sturridge.) ## Kelli O'Hara in Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343006617-1632705094.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Kelli O'Hara attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She looks fantastic in this, although she might have needed a little more color in her face? (Or even just bright earrings.) ## Jordan Fisher ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343006650-1632705105.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Jordan Fisher attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This is super polished. ## Danny Burstein ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343008636-1632705116.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Danny Burstein attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I LOVE this shirt; he won for his role in *Moulin Rouge* (he plays the Jim Broadbent part; everything's going so welllll!!!!). Apparently, this is his first win after seven nominations, and his wife Rebecca Luker died this year after being ill with ALS -- this has to be incredibly bittersweet for him. ## Robbie Fairchild ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343009395-1632705127.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Robbie Fairchild attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This is sincerely delightful! ## Wayne Brady ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343035805-1632705173.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Wayne Brady attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I didn't expect this many hats at this event, and I'm not mad about it. ## BD Wong ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343036647-1632705184.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: BD Wong attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) I love him, but I might have dialed back the sneaker-y-ness of these sneaks back to slightly less sneakery. ## Bebe Neuwirth ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343012671-1632705195.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Bebe Neuwirth attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) She looks like she might be an assassin, and I mean that in a good way. ## Stephanie J. Block ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343012822-1632705206.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Stephanie J. Block attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This is relaxed and very good on her. ## Patina Miller in Markarian ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343012866-1632705231.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Patina Miller attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) And she looks FANTASTIC. ## Jeremy O. Harris in custom Schiaparelli ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343021940-1632705241.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Jeremy O. Harris attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) He's a genius and this is very good, but those shoes with the fake gold toes make it look vaguely like he's wearing platform slides, and it is NOT prudent for ANY of us to go back to that era. Don't tempt anyone, Schiaparelli. ## Cyndi Lauper ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343022030-1632705252.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Cyndi Lauper attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Perfect for her. Can someone get Cyndi into a new version of Cinderella, as the Fairy Godmother? ## Andrew Rannells and Zuzanna Szadkowski ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343022157-1632705263.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: (L-R) Andrew Rannells and Zuzanna Szadkowski attend the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Andrew Rannells's lifelong friendship with Zuzanna "Dorota" Szadkowski is so heartwarming. They both look great! ## Davide Borella ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343022363-1632705274.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Davide Borella attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This whole look has a very Foxy 70s Vibe that I APPRECIATE. ## Jennifer Nettles in Marchesa ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343022466-1632705285.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Jennifer Nettles attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) Sure! ## Lauren Patten in Thom Browne ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343023705-1632705296.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Lauren Patten attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) But...wow. THIS is memorable. (She won for her role in *Jagged Little Pill*, a show which [has had a LOT of bad press](https://people.com/theater/jagged-little-pill-star-antonio-cipriano-exits-show-producer-transphobia-tonys/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io) recently, as it seems like it has a myriad of issues.) ## Anika Noni Rose in Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343039931-1632705694.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Anika Noni Rose attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) This is so dreamy! (Christian Siriano had a good night.) ## Tituss Burgess ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343037579-1632705859.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Tituss Burgess attends the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City. (Photo by Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images for Tony Awards Productions) TITUSS!!!!! ## Chita Rivera and Lisa Mordente ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2021/09/GettyImages-1343040030-1632705867.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 26: Chita Rivera and Lisa Mordente attend the 74th Annual Tony Awards at Winter Garden Theater on September 26, 2021 in New York City.
