Ariana DeBose

This is like....fine? But it feels a LEETLE matronly on her, perhaps. I recognize and appreciate the desire to dress like a really rich UES lady with a juicy Bergdorf's tag, though.

I just thought this was a great shot. Trust a dancer to always be able to make a beautiful entrance. (And that coat is deliciously swirly!)

Emilia Jones in Miu Miu

To be blunt: I hate this. This would be so much better if it were just a standard white button down. It being cropped (AND SATIN??) adds nothing here.

The edge of the hem is frayed here; I thought it was tucked under like she'd cropped it by sticking the hem in her bra. I....guess this is better?

Saniyya Sidney in Valentino

Leaving aside the fact that I cannot believe THESE are the shoes that have crawled out of the wreckage of the pandemic, she looks absolutely adorable. Truly, she is so cute.

Caitriona Balfe in Del Core

This is like a very very very expensive dressing gown, but she's wearing it VERY well and the lip color/dress shade are gorgeous together.

Alana Haim

This feels like a bandage dress and a satin bridesmaid's dress had a baby, but not in BAD way?

Rosario Dawson

Meanwhile, Rosario Dawson looks like she just apparated from her weekly coven meeting. Again, not necessarily in a bad way?

Troy Kotsur

This is an excellent illustration of the word GROOVY. I would listen to this man's thoughts on my mural, for sure, for example.

Ciarán Hinds

Ciarán Hinds showing up to just look classic.

Simon Rex

I kept thinking, "WHO does Simon Rex remind me of?" and honestly, I think the answer is SIMON REX. But also maybe Bradley Cooper. They could play brothers in something, right?

That's not a joke! UGG boots quite literally sponsored this portion!
