Posted: 6/16/08 at 2:29pmI agree, Kate's dress was so pretty! I also thought Laura Benanti, Kelli O'Hara, Kristin Chenoweth, and Kerry Butler were the best dressed of the bunch. Worst dressed in my opinion would go to LBB (the front of that dress was weird and her make-up was awful) and Idina. What was with that necklace?

Broadway.com has their top five with Laura Benanti's stunning red dress coming in at number one. The rest of the list is Kelli O'Hara, Deanna Dunagan, Laura Osnes, and Andrea Martin.
I love Kate's dress too. It's different without being TOO different

Posted: 6/16/08 at 5:35pmI didn't see a single person that looked really fabulous, but if I had to choose the best I would say it was between Marisa Tomei and Laura Benanti.

Posted: 6/16/08 at 6:24pmI thought Laura Benanti looked GORGEOUS. Then again, when does she not? Oh yeah, when she's Caroline the Cow. LOL. Kelli O'Hara looked amazing too. I loved Laura Linney's dress. Kristin looked adorable as always. BTW, I did not think Idina or Laura Bell looked very good. Laura Bell's eyebrows were too bushy and dark for her. But overall I think it was a very good night for the leading ladies of Broadway. Omg I 4got Kerry Butler! She looked FIERCE.

Posted: 6/16/08 at 6:30pmI agree about Laura Bell Bundy. That make was not flattering at all.

I loved Kate Fleetwood's gown.
And Laura Benanti was best dressed, I agree.
#39re: Best Dressed at the Tonys?
Posted: 6/16/08 at 6:42pmAndrea Martin looked lovely too.

Laura Benanti wins it in my book.
Oh and I know this is the Best Dressed thread, but I just have to say that Catherine Zuber has worn almost the same dress for the past 3 years, and it's not flattering.

Posted: 6/16/08 at 8:12pmIt certainly wasn't Whoopie. Her outfits seemed to be donated to her by the St. Vincent de Paul Society.

LBB's makeup wasn't great but her dress is fine
i wouldn't put her on the worst list

I also thought Deanna Dunagan looked great. As one of the "Belles of the Ball" (winner of the top two female acting awards) she looked as great as you would expect.
It's too bad that Patti's fashion sense was, well, to put it kindly, better than she usually dresses for these kinds of occasions, but still pretty bad.
