Behind the Scenes with Sutton Foster and Micaela Erlanger

Photography by Sarah Hiatt

June 8th, 2015

The Tuesday before the Tony Awards we accompanied Sutton Foster and amazing stylist Micaela Erlanger (she’s responsible for the red carpet looks of Michelle Dockery and Lupita Nyong’o among others) to a fitting at Naeem Khan’s studio in midtown Manhattan. We got to see all of the effort—from picking jewelry (Fred Leighton) and shoes (Kurt Geiger) to getting the fit of the dress absolutely right—that goes into creating the perfect red carpet moment. And we brought along photographer Sarah Hiatt to document the occasion. Enjoy this peek into the red carpet process and for interviews with Micaela, Sutton, and more please check out our story on how fashion can help empower women of the theatre.
