I like this trend better than big poofy sleeves from the #GoldenGIobes

Broshahan appreciated the joke, as she re-posted Brie’s messages on her own Instagram Story.
Brie was nominated for her role in Netflix’s GLOW, while Brosnahan was up for her performance in Amazon’s The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Brosnahan previously won the award in 2017 and 2018, beating Brie in both cases.

As for Dern, she also donned an orange dress. She won Best Supporting Actress in a Movie for her performance as divorce lawyer Nora Fanshaw in Netflix’s Marriage Story. The role earned her an Oscar nomination Monday morning and won her a Golden Globe earlier this month.
Dern was wearing Emilia Wickstead, while Brosnahan donned a Carolina Herrera dress, reports E! News. Brie wore a Brandon Maxwell dress.
While Brosnahan gets to wear colorful 1950s fashion on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, her awards show appearances give fans a chance to see her in more modern glamour and wearing her naturally blond hair color. In a November interview with The New York Times, Brosnahan noted that most people are shocked when they see her blond hair.
“It’s funny because people are confused when they see me blond,” Brosnahan said. “I was 17 or so when I dyed my hair pretty severely dark. My friends and grandmother were horrified. I’m such an advocate of natural beauty, of embracing who you are at your most natural, but I actually feel more myself with dark hair. I always have. I started my career with dark hair. So when I went blond again, everyone thought I had drunk the L.A. Kool-Aid.”
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel is now available to stream on Amazon and was picked up for a fourth season. GLOW and Marriage Story are both available on Netflix.
