When it comes to our coverage of awards season prelaunch events like the Governors Awards, the priority is always to feature the buzzy awards track people first, but it seems that this time around, we’re more interested in the folks that showed up in discussable fashion. Case in point, the queen of discussable fashion (most of the time) herself, Miss Natasha Lyonne, whose personal and public styles tend toward a surplus of personality.
Let’s just pretend we don’t see Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos, silently acknowledge that all this posing and grinning is how the game is played in this industry, send out a small note of sympathy to her for having to put up with it, and move on to the dress, shall we? For the longest time, she was very much in her Stevie Nicks/Studio 54/Jill Clayburgh era of ’70s-inspired fashion (she can work the entire range of it), and we knew that she would probably have to give it up at some point, lest she be typecast or stuck in a rut. She gave some comments recently while doing press for His Three Daughters about how she tends to get cast as drug users, and we detected a certain sense of her chafing at it. Long story short: we don’t actually like this style for her, but we can sense that she’s trying to move onto something softer and more romantic. We can’t help noticing that it still smacks of retro to us and that she might be better off working much sharper, more modern styles in the Tilda Swinton mode.
