We’re so used to seeing the ladies of Orange is the New Black pared down, in prison overalls, sans makeup, that we barely recognize them when they’re out of character.

Last night, at the premiere of the final season of the show, the ladies truly dazzled, dripping brown skin girl swag all over the red carpet. Textured ponytails, flowing locs, flawless skin, and box braid updos abound.

From a pregnant and glowing Danielle Brooks sporting a dramatic hat atop a finger wave with blinged out clips, paired with gorgeous eye makeup, to Laverne Cox with her voluminous modern day I Dream of Genie high pony and purple ethereal eyeshadow, and all the looks in between, we were here for the looks they were serving.
