Emmy Awards 2017: The Internet Reacts to Jane Fonda’s Red-Carpet Look

Jaws dropped at Sunday night’s event when Jane Fonda appeared on the red carpet in a perfectly ’70s-inspired getup. She wore a floor-length, curve-hugging hot pink Brandon Maxwell gown with bell sleeves and a coordinating pink belt, and accessorized with silver pointy-toe pumps, a glittery silver clutch purse, and a matching dramatic diamond- and emerald-studded necklace and earrings by Gismondi 1754. The Grace and Frankie star also wore smoky eye makeup and light pink lipstick, and ditched her signature perfectly coiffed bob for a long blond ponytail with face-framing bangs.

In a red-carpet interview with Entertainment Tonight, Fonda, who is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Grace Hanson in Grace and Frankie, revealed the surprising inspiration for the night’s look. “This look makes me feel fantastic,” Fonda said. “I watch what Gwen Stefani does on a red carpet and try to copy her, and that’s the truth. It doesn’t come naturally to me, but she does it so great. So I try to do what she does.”

THAT PONYTAIL. LIFE,” one Twitter user wrote, while another added, “Amazing. Jane Fonda being an absolute goddess at 79! she will look better than all of us today than EVER.”
