In theater, costumes are more than just clothes; they’re storytelling devices. Nobody understands that better than those walking the Tony Awards 2025 red carpet, with their style taking center stage on Sunday at Radio City Music Hall in New York City as they salute and honor the year’s best of Broadway.
Costumes convey character, giving hints about the wearer’s life, habits, and history. Simply changing someone’s shoe from a high heel to a flat can alter the viewer’s understanding of who the person is: practical and on the go, or fanciful and in no particular hurry? That’s just one of the reasons that red-carpet fashion at the Tony Awards is always so fun to peruse. The other? During Hollywood’s awards season, the same celebrities are getting black-tie-ready week after week, show after show. The Tonys, however, are the most high-profile of just a handful of theater awards, so attendees tend to give styling their all.
This year some familiar faces from those Hollywood awards shows will be in attendance at the Tony Awards 2025, like first-time nominees George Clooney, Sadie Sink, Sarah Snook, and Mia Farrow. Will those red-carpet veterans show the world a new side of their style?
Below, all the looks from the Tony Awards 2025—no need to hold your applause.
