Several months ago, when The Holdovers star and Best Supporting Actress nominee Da’Vine Joy Randolph started getting buzz for her performance, we posted that we were putting the fashion world on notice and that they better do right by this rising star, because “if we’re going to be writing an “Ology” post about her in a few months… we better see some high end frocks and gowns practically thrown at her.” We are happy to report that not only were we right (which is always nice for us), but that she did, in fact, get a bunch of pretty fabulous looks thrown at her. She didn’t get the big names that actress nominees tend to have at their disposal, but we’ll see how thing shake out on the big night. Since she’s been so amazingly consistent, we’ll skip to the end of the scrolldown to give our thoughts.

It’s clear she likes dresses that deliver drama, usually in the form of some sort of sweeping drape, flounce, or gigantic ruffle or flower. She’s very consistent with that preference, although she sometimes keeps things simple in shape. She likes bold color and she’s prone to choosing elegance over trendiness. All of this is said with the acknowledgement that navigating these waters is a lot more difficult for her than it is for someone like Emily Blunt. She and her team have done an admirable job of keeping her looking like a prestige actress and a diva throughout the season. Since there is every indication that she will be picking up that trophy on prom night, we will be extremely bitchy if she didn’t get access to some of the biggest names in fashion for her moment. Regardless, we know she’ll show up looking amazing.
