Considering Cate Blanchett often shows up to award shows in Cinderella-like gowns and floral-embellished numbers, we naively expected more of the same for this year's Tony Awards. But after seeing her on the red carpet, decked out in an edgy, leather-sleeved Louis Vuitton look, we realized we couldn't have been more wrong. This was not the Disney-inspired outfit Cate typically opts for at these events — and that's exactly why it caught our eye.
We love that the star went with something daring, standing out in a sea of colorful, feminine gowns. And the best touch of all? The translucent ribbon she and other attendees wore in honor of the victims from the Orlando, FL, shooting. Read on to see Cate's Tony Awards look in full.
It even had leather sleeves.
