Would we expect anything less from the best dressed show on TV?

They came, they danced, they conquered. The White Lotus cast took the 2023 SAG Awards by storm over the weekend, arriving en masse to collect their awards for outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama. And they seemed to have a lot of fun doing it.

While we loved their onscreen ensembles, from Tanya McQuoid's flowing kaftans and glamorous beach attire to Daphne's excellent array of holiday outfits, it's in real life that the whole cast has cemented its style star status.

Stepping on stage to collect her award, Haley Lu Richardson looked a far cry from her Gen Z character Portia (whose mismatched style was previously described as 'unhinged' on Twitter). Richardson, who seemed to be having the most fun ever, traded in the crochet crop tops for a strapless pearl-embellished Carolina Herrera gown expertly finished with a glossy red lip.

Jennifer Coolidge, who also took home the coveted award for best female actor in a drama series, stole the show, looking magnificent in all black Saint Laurent and a matching headband - complimenting a perfect '60s-inspired blow dry. While co-stars, and real life BFFs, Simona Tabasco and Beatrice Grannò looked every inch the fashion icons wearing Giorgio Armani and Maison Valentino respectively. Sabrina Impacciatore, who plays Valentina in the HBO hit, was perhaps the most surprising fashion winner of the evening - arriving wearing a fuchsia pink Maison Valentino gown and matching hot pink platforms, a far cry from her onscreen wardrobe of neat-but-understated tailoring.

And we can't forget the boys, note Will Sharpe in Ferragamo and Leo Woodall in Fendi's relaxed take on black tie. An expert lesson in how red carpet dressing doesn't always have to be a tuxedo - although Adam DiMarco's Dior tux was quite the masterpiece.

Outfits aside, it was the photos of the fun-filled night of frolicking that took place after the awards ceremony, which made us all want to be in their gang.
