If I were in a room with even one of these dresses, I would cry.
Look, Laverne Cox is amazing. She’s a talented actor, activist, and model. But it’s time we also give her credit for the absolute fashion icon she is.
In honor of this, I have compiled my absolute favorite of her red carpet looks. Here are 36 times Laverne Cox looked like the cover of a damn magazine:
1.
This sleek see-through gown that was right at home at the Charlie’s Angels premiere:
