Cynthia Erivo 78th Annual Tony Awards red carpet

Cynthia Erivo

The Wicked star and Oscar nominee had the distinct honor of hosting this year's Tony Awards; and from the moment she hit the red carpet, it was clear she came to slay!

Erivo started off strong, walking the arrivals red carpet in a phenomenal Schiaparelli outfit consisting of an intricately embroidered off-the-shoulder jacket, paired with a minimal maxi skirt in a matching shade. She accessorized with Fope jewelry, and of course, her signature stiletto manicure was as wow-worthy as ever!

Theater royalty Kristin Chenoweth turned heads in a bold blue Christian Siriano dress, featuring a sculpted dramatic pointed bodice and a voluminous sheer skirt with a fun, asymmetrical hemline.

She accessorized with heeled sandals in a matching blue hue, and chose to forgo a necklace and bracelets to let the dramatic dress take center stage. Her blonde hair was worn in a sleek, center-parted down do, tucked behind her shoulders so as not to interfere with the bodice, and she finished off with a bold smoky eye and nude lips.

Sarah Paulson was a Tony winner at last year's event, taking home the award for 'Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play' for her role as Toni Lafayette in Appropriate. And she was a sartorial winner at last night's ceremony too!

The American Horror Story star stunned in a Schiaparelli Couture piece, featuring a black, high-neck velvet bodice and an intricate embroidered hoop skirt which finished just below the floor to give fans a peek at her black heels. She accessorized further with a metallic clutch, and finished off with Buccellati jewelry, while her hair was worn in a chic updo.
