We spotted Uzo Aduba at the Honor runway show on day one of New York Fashion Week, decked in a demure ensemble straight from the fashion house. “It’s an honor to wear Honor,” the actress gushed.  When asked who her top three favorite designers were, the Orange is The New Black star couldn’t decide.

“I mean, I love De la Renta,” said Aduba. “I love CoSTUME National, I think they’re just incredible. And I love Marc Jacobs, too, they’re also great, just a great brand.”

If you had no idea the Emmy award-winning actress was a fashion girl, well, now you know. “I love the excitement and I love seeing what’s next, season after season,” said Aduba. “In acting, they’re always talking about the next, so it’s great to see a piece of that being answered here today and throughout the week.”
