The Oscar winner accessorized her ensemble with a pair of dainty, gold earrings as well as an Alexis Bittar lucite bangle on her right wrist and rings on each of her hands.

Her hair was parted in the middle, and effortlessly cascaded down past her shoulders in light waves.

She additionally donned a white shirt underneath as well as a teal bowtie and black and white-colored sneakers for a casual flare.

During the Best Musical acceptance speech producer Matthew Rego recognized the author of the 1967 novel as he said: ‘Susie [Eloise] Hinton wrote The Outsiders 60 years ago. And she has gratefully received accolades ever since. But she often says that she still gets overwhelmed when told that The Outsiders change someone’s life, because she’ll say, “Who am I to change anyone’s life?” It’s the book, it’s not the author. The message, not the messenger.” Well, Susie, I’m here to tell you that your story and its eternal message of love and family and staying gold has forever changed all of our lives. We love you’

The Outsiders is based on the iconic SE Hinton book as it is told from the perspective of 14-year-old Ponyboy Curtis during the 1960s in Tulsa, Oklahoma and follows the conflict between two rival gangs divided by their socioeconomic status: the working-class ‘Greasers’ and the upper-middle-class ‘Socs.’

Meanwhile Sarah Paulson beat out an impressive star-studded field as she earned her first ever Tony Award.

The talented 49-year-old star took home Lead Actress in a Play for her work in Appropriate.

Sarah triumphed over a who’s who of talented thespians including: Betsy Aidem for Prayer for the French Republic, Jessica Lange for Mother Play, Rachel McAdams for Mary Jane, and Amy Ryan for Doubt: A Parable.

The star made sure to recognize her competition as she began her speech saying: ‘Wow. Whew-wee! Whew! It is humbling to be included in the same breath as Amy Ryan, Rachel Mcadams, Betsy Aidem, and the great Jessica Lange. ‘

She thanked several others including the American Theatre Wing and Broadway League, JJ Abrams, and others.

Sarah went on to thank longtime love Holland Taylor as she continued her speech saying: ‘Holland, thank you for loving I am standing here tonight because of the mighty talent that is Branden Jacobs-Jenkins.

‘I will never be able to convey my gratitude to you for trusting me, for letting me hold the hand of Tony Lafayette, a woman you have written who makes no apology, who isn’t begging to be liked or approved of, but does hope to be seen. But don’t we all? As a young actress I remember seeing A Doll’s House in the very theater I’m living in. Some nights when I’m backstage I think about the indelible impact of her.

‘I think about the walls of theaters all over this magical town, holding the impact of each and every one of you in this room, and all of those who came before, and I think, how lucky those walls are to bear witness to the relentless interrogation of human experience that we endeavor to explore nightly for each other, to give back to one another with the hope of finding some shared path toward the truth about being alive. This is the heart and soul of what we do, and I am so honored to be amongst you. Thank you.’

 Appropriate follows the dysfunctional Lafayette family as they return to a decaying plantation mansion in Arkansas to battle over their recently deceased father’s inheritance. Soon after the discovery of a relic buried deep in the recess of their family’s past, decades of resentment burst through centuries of historical sin.

The production also earned top honor  Best Revival of a Play beating out An Enemy of the People and Purlie Victorious: A Non-Confederate Romp Through the Cotton Patch.

Earlier in the night it was Daniel Radcliffe who earned his first Tony Awards in the Featured Actor in a Musical category for his spellbinding performance in Merrily We Roll Along.

The 34-year-old former Harry Potter star beat out an impressive field including: Roger Bart for Back To The Future: The Musical, Joshua Boone for The Outsiders, Brandon Victor Dixon for Hell’s Kitchen, Sky Lakota-Lynch for The Outsiders, and Steven Skybell for Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.

Daniel began his acceptance speech by saying: ‘Thank you so much. Okay, I’m going to just talk fast and try not to cry. Thank you so much to the Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing for this unbelievable honor.’

He thanked many including Stephen Sondheim, director Maria Friedman, and the entire cast and crew before thanking his family
