Fresh off the heels of the Year of the Pop Girl, today\u2019s most iconic comedians are establishing their footing as style icons. While they&#8217;ve been hard at work for years, the past year or two has been a particularly ripe moment for their success: Think Nikki Glaser&#8217;s Golden Globes hosting streak (and awards circuit glam), Mary Beth Barone&#8217;s red carpet banter, and Ziwe&#8217;s high-profile interviews with plenty of candied cropped suits to match. It turns out there\u2019s a real power to packing punchlines and style prowess.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Female comedians are dominating the space at the moment, and they\u2019re bringing their stylists&#8217; greatest charms with them. Ahead,<strong> we\u2019re walking through the funniest women you should be following<\/strong>, including how they\u2019ve established themselves as true fashion people.Hold your applause!\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_5-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Female Comedians of the Moment <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> There\u2019s no shortage of leading ladies with smart styling <em>and<\/em> cuttingly clever jokes. From traditional standup to TikTok\u2019s funniest voices, comedians have earned some serious sartorial recognition.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> From the 2021-22 run of her eponymous show to her current era of standalone YouTube interviews with her &#8220;iconic guests,&#8221; Ziwe has dominated in the matching set department, tactically matching cropped blazers with of-the-moment mini skirts. Always chic, polished, and characteristically confident, she&#8217;s also dabbled in more high-profile glam and archival pulls as she&#8217;s spent more time in the spotlight.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We also turn our attention to Mary Beth Barone, who\u2019s fluent in designers as well as dry, pared-back quips on life, love, and the cultural impact of the Spice Girls. Earlier this month, she wore an archival Todd Oldham gown when interviewing stars at the Golden Globes, and we won\u2019t soon forget it. She looked every bit the cool fashion girl as her smart, sarcastic coverage led many to call her &#8220;the next Joan Rivers.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_1-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@marybethbarone \/ Instagram \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> You might also watch Nikki Glaser, who&#8217;s become one of the freshest voices in the historic boys&#8217; club of awards show hosts, or viral SNL cast members-turned-style icons like Chloe Fineman, Sarah Sherman (aka Sarah Squirm), and Veronika Slowikowska. And of course, we can\u2019t forget the infinitely funny Meg Stalter of <em>Hacks<\/em> and <em>Too Much<\/em>,\u00a0who brings a punch of color (and a little well-placed attitude) to modern trends. From red carpet moments that prioritize the bit to a penchant fir a statement piece, she effortlessly melds impeccable taste with a dash of unserious flair.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Meg Stalter looks into a mirror while wearing monarch dress\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_2-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/OswMk1-VSu3FdODfSMIQ2QADA58=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/4-5b6aee8e452f4a74bf716f557fe0884f.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/OswMk1-VSu3FdODfSMIQ2QADA58=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/4-5b6aee8e452f4a74bf716f557fe0884f.png\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Meg Stalter looks into a mirror while wearing monarch dress\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@megsstalter \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-spotlight--mid-circ mntl-sc-block-spotlight--mid-circ mntl-block \">\n<h2 id=\"midcirc__heading_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc__heading mntl-text-block\">Related Stories<\/h2>\n<div id=\"midcirc__card-list_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc__card-list mntl-block\">\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__title_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__title mntl-text-block\">The &#8220;Power Lesbian&#8221; Has Always Been the Ultimate Office Siren<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__image-wrapper_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__image-wrapper mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Tamara Tunie with a group of individuals indoors attending an event holding glasses\" class=\"lazyload midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/dNjrgZ0HH9UtYEsGs112zGmvWc8=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LesbianOfficeSiren_LeadRecirc-ecaec0f6cf704760b39fd2d122c9d07e.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/dNjrgZ0HH9UtYEsGs112zGmvWc8=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LesbianOfficeSiren_LeadRecirc-ecaec0f6cf704760b39fd2d122c9d07e.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"img--noscript midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Tamara Tunie with a group of individuals indoors attending an event holding glasses\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__title_2-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__title mntl-text-block\">Reality Stars Are Finally Real Stars<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__image-wrapper_2-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__image-wrapper mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Four women posing together each wearing formal attire\" class=\"lazyload midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/UTIIL5Y3HWR9G-1ZZPLFNx4rNmo=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_RealityRealStars_LeadRecirc_alt2-22660e04dfcf44c3be8d51bbff65a7a5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/UTIIL5Y3HWR9G-1ZZPLFNx4rNmo=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_RealityRealStars_LeadRecirc_alt2-22660e04dfcf44c3be8d51bbff65a7a5.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"img--noscript midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Four women posing together each wearing formal attire\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Why Now Is Their Time <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_19-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Woman-led scripted comedies have already taken over. <em>Abbott Elementary<\/em> is streaming in millions of U.S. households (and up for countless awards), while the ultra-meta <em>Hacks <\/em>explores the quirky complexities of female veterans in the comedy industry. Newcomer <em>I Love L.A. <\/em>combined the ultra-online vocabulary of Gen-Z with the aspirational slice-of-life commentary of <em>Girls<\/em>.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Thanks to the likes of Rachel Sennott and Quinta Brunson, we spent 2025 giggling through fictional quips\u2014and their influence has fully infiltrated the culture at large.

Many of her ensembles reflect that playful power imbalance, as she styles sweet, unassuming details with structural basics: the perfect attire for grilling guests like onetime socialite poser Anna Delvey and disgraced former congressman George Santos.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> That awkward, dry comedy (in a similar vein to Amelia Dimoldenberg\u2019s Chicken Shop Dates) draws heavily on body language, bringing attention to the overall outfit. It&#8217;s worth noting that Dimoldenberg, too, has gained style icon status as her career has skyrocketed: The star is known to consistently serve a look, plus she&#8217;s been racking up the fashion collabs and red carpet correspondent gigs.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_28-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Ziwe and Amelia Dimoldenberg wearing trend-forward black outfits\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_4-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/U5T4LPHlzqCTTHbSVkiLK5VTAPg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-95ff87dc057645f7aba18162a6024b07.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/U5T4LPHlzqCTTHbSVkiLK5VTAPg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-95ff87dc057645f7aba18162a6024b07.png\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Ziwe and Amelia Dimoldenberg wearing trend-forward black outfits\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_4-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Getty Images \/ @ameliadimz \/ Instagram \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Others lead with a casual relatability that links their ensemble and standup material.

The casual nature of a voice note-adjacent podcast adds a layer of personal connection (and thus, an extra incentive to follow their fashion choices).<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Comedian as a Style Icon <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_35-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Standup requires risks: What if your jokes don\u2019t land, or you don\u2019t <em>nail<\/em> the delivery and the punchline falls flat? Today\u2019s leading comedians are translating those leaps of faith into the fashion department, turning high-risk ensembles into high-reward moments. The idea is that there\u2019s minimal chance for a fashion flop if you aren\u2019t taking yourself too seriously\u2014and it has the potential for major payoff.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_37-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Sabrina Carpenter and Veronika Slowikowska wear coordinating sparkly animal t-shirt dresses and tall white go-go boots\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_6-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VE6sx_rShRJZVxmFtzxPPolQaT8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_31_574724799_18541701601056426_6431609251781599757_n-adc9d4071d0846f385f918608b3a736d.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VE6sx_rShRJZVxmFtzxPPolQaT8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_31_574724799_18541701601056426_6431609251781599757_n-adc9d4071d0846f385f918608b3a736d.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Sabrina Carpenter and Veronika Slowikowska wear coordinating sparkly animal t-shirt dresses and tall white go-go boots\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@veronika_iscool \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As bite-sized standup clips enter the algorithm, some comedians catch the eye of #FashionTok with a healthy dose of trending pieces. Slowikowska rotates paid fashion partnerships with her short-form skits on Instagram. Sherman, meanwhile, is nearly as well-known for her clown-inspired maximalism as her faux newscaster bit on SNL.

Others even take this a step further by choosing unconventional red carpet outfits to let more political messages take center stage\u2014like when Stalter arrived at the 2025 Emmys carrying a black leather bag with &#8220;cease fire&#8221; taped to the side. Even when the goal is more serious, comedians&#8217; creative flair often gives a more accessible, internet-friendly entry point into meaningful discussions.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_43-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Comedians have mastered the intricacies of language and storytelling to captivate audiences. Those comedy sets aren\u2019t always fluff and dating horror stories: They comment on current events, shine a mirror to society at large, and present their POV in a unique way.

Fresh off the heels of the Year of the Pop Girl, today\u2019s most iconic comedians are establishing their footing as style icons. While they&#8217;ve been hard at work for years, the past year or two has been a particularly ripe moment for their success: Think Nikki Glaser&#8217;s Golden Globes hosting streak (and awards circuit glam), Mary Beth Barone&#8217;s red carpet banter, and Ziwe&#8217;s high-profile interviews with plenty of candied cropped suits to match. It turns out there\u2019s a real power to packing punchlines and style prowess.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Female comedians are dominating the space at the moment, and they\u2019re bringing their stylists&#8217; greatest charms with them.

From traditional standup to TikTok\u2019s funniest voices, comedians have earned some serious sartorial recognition.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_8-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> From the 2021-22 run of her eponymous show to her current era of standalone YouTube interviews with her &#8220;iconic guests,&#8221; Ziwe has dominated in the matching set department, tactically matching cropped blazers with of-the-moment mini skirts. Always chic, polished, and characteristically confident, she&#8217;s also dabbled in more high-profile glam and archival pulls as she&#8217;s spent more time in the spotlight.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We also turn our attention to Mary Beth Barone, who\u2019s fluent in designers as well as dry, pared-back quips on life, love, and the cultural impact of the Spice Girls. Earlier this month, she wore an archival Todd Oldham gown when interviewing stars at the Golden Globes, and we won\u2019t soon forget it. She looked every bit the cool fashion girl as her smart, sarcastic coverage led many to call her &#8220;the next Joan Rivers.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_1-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@marybethbarone \/ Instagram \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> You might also watch Nikki Glaser, who&#8217;s become one of the freshest voices in the historic boys&#8217; club of awards show hosts, or viral SNL cast members-turned-style icons like Chloe Fineman, Sarah Sherman (aka Sarah Squirm), and Veronika Slowikowska. And of course, we can\u2019t forget the infinitely funny Meg Stalter of <em>Hacks<\/em> and <em>Too Much<\/em>,\u00a0who brings a punch of color (and a little well-placed attitude) to modern trends. From red carpet moments that prioritize the bit to a penchant fir a statement piece, she effortlessly melds impeccable taste with a dash of unserious flair.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_15-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Meg Stalter looks into a mirror while wearing monarch dress\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_2-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/OswMk1-VSu3FdODfSMIQ2QADA58=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/4-5b6aee8e452f4a74bf716f557fe0884f.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/OswMk1-VSu3FdODfSMIQ2QADA58=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/4-5b6aee8e452f4a74bf716f557fe0884f.png\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Meg Stalter looks into a mirror while wearing monarch dress\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@megsstalter \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-block_16-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-spotlight--mid-circ mntl-sc-block-spotlight--mid-circ mntl-block \">\n<h2 id=\"midcirc__heading_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc__heading mntl-text-block\">Related Stories<\/h2>\n<div id=\"midcirc__card-list_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc__card-list mntl-block\">\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__title_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__title mntl-text-block\">The &#8220;Power Lesbian&#8221; Has Always Been the Ultimate Office Siren<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__image-wrapper_1-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__image-wrapper mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Tamara Tunie with a group of individuals indoors attending an event holding glasses\" class=\"lazyload midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/dNjrgZ0HH9UtYEsGs112zGmvWc8=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LesbianOfficeSiren_LeadRecirc-ecaec0f6cf704760b39fd2d122c9d07e.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/dNjrgZ0HH9UtYEsGs112zGmvWc8=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LesbianOfficeSiren_LeadRecirc-ecaec0f6cf704760b39fd2d122c9d07e.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"img--noscript midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Tamara Tunie with a group of individuals indoors attending an event holding glasses\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__title_2-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__title mntl-text-block\">Reality Stars Are Finally Real Stars<\/div>\n<div id=\"midcirc-card__image-wrapper_2-0\" class=\"comp midcirc-card__image-wrapper mntl-block\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" alt=\"Four women posing together each wearing formal attire\" class=\"lazyload midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/UTIIL5Y3HWR9G-1ZZPLFNx4rNmo=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_RealityRealStars_LeadRecirc_alt2-22660e04dfcf44c3be8d51bbff65a7a5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/UTIIL5Y3HWR9G-1ZZPLFNx4rNmo=\/400x300\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_RealityRealStars_LeadRecirc_alt2-22660e04dfcf44c3be8d51bbff65a7a5.jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" class=\"img--noscript midcirc-card__image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Four women posing together each wearing formal attire\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_18-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> Why Now Is Their Time <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_19-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Woman-led scripted comedies have already taken over. <em>Abbott Elementary<\/em> is streaming in millions of U.S. households (and up for countless awards), while the ultra-meta <em>Hacks <\/em>explores the quirky complexities of female veterans in the comedy industry. Newcomer <em>I Love L.A. <\/em>combined the ultra-online vocabulary of Gen-Z with the aspirational slice-of-life commentary of <em>Girls<\/em>.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_21-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Thanks to the likes of Rachel Sennott and Quinta Brunson, we spent 2025 giggling through fictional quips\u2014and their influence has fully infiltrated the culture at large. Leading comedians harness those opportunities in a more real-to-life way. Fashion follows.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_23-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Quinta Brunson wears a knit top, sweater vest, and snakeskin skirt\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_3-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/Vb2MdzUpfvtNEDgiGXhSW9UHrc8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/5-0d92c661fc1c42cf88a1358b6100d2a8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/Vb2MdzUpfvtNEDgiGXhSW9UHrc8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/5-0d92c661fc1c42cf88a1358b6100d2a8.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Quinta Brunson wears a knit top, sweater vest, and snakeskin skirt\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Getty Images<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_24-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Ziwe, who\u2019s built her platform on straight-faced satire, \u201cgotcha\u201d moments, and comically uncomfortable silence, also holds the title of absolute fashion legend. Many of her ensembles reflect that playful power imbalance, as she styles sweet, unassuming details with structural basics: the perfect attire for grilling guests like onetime socialite poser Anna Delvey and disgraced former congressman George Santos.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_26-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> That awkward, dry comedy (in a similar vein to Amelia Dimoldenberg\u2019s Chicken Shop Dates) draws heavily on body language, bringing attention to the overall outfit. It&#8217;s worth noting that Dimoldenberg, too, has gained style icon status as her career has skyrocketed: The star is known to consistently serve a look, plus she&#8217;s been racking up the fashion collabs and red carpet correspondent gigs.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_28-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Ziwe and Amelia Dimoldenberg wearing trend-forward black outfits\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_4-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/U5T4LPHlzqCTTHbSVkiLK5VTAPg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-95ff87dc057645f7aba18162a6024b07.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/U5T4LPHlzqCTTHbSVkiLK5VTAPg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-95ff87dc057645f7aba18162a6024b07.png\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Ziwe and Amelia Dimoldenberg wearing trend-forward black outfits\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_4-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>Getty Images \/ @ameliadimz \/ Instagram \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_29-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Others lead with a casual relatability that links their ensemble and standup material. Slowikowska sports oversized tees and TikTok-approved cardigans in her social skits. Fellow standup comedian Glaser loves a rhinestone sports jersey and thigh-high boot combo.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_31-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Nikki Glaser wears a sports jersey and blue thigh-high boots\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_5-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VOl-lKYVFybMMpLy7P21R4ZNVaM=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_3_487562896_18502059778009366_8508434197253814938_n-2780469538b94eb085ac1a9c96fce514.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VOl-lKYVFybMMpLy7P21R4ZNVaM=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_3_487562896_18502059778009366_8508434197253814938_n-2780469538b94eb085ac1a9c96fce514.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Nikki Glaser wears a sports jersey and blue thigh-high boots\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_5-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@nikkiglaser \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_32-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> There\u2019s also the laid-back blurring of the \u201ccomedian\u201d title as more in the industry take to the podcast mic and TikTok feed at large, folding in audience members who aren\u2019t predisposed to sitting through a standup set. The casual nature of a voice note-adjacent podcast adds a layer of personal connection (and thus, an extra incentive to follow their fashion choices).<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_34-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Comedian as a Style Icon <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_35-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Standup requires risks: What if your jokes don\u2019t land, or you don\u2019t <em>nail<\/em> the delivery and the punchline falls flat? Today\u2019s leading comedians are translating those leaps of faith into the fashion department, turning high-risk ensembles into high-reward moments. The idea is that there\u2019s minimal chance for a fashion flop if you aren\u2019t taking yourself too seriously\u2014and it has the potential for major payoff.\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_37-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Sabrina Carpenter and Veronika Slowikowska wear coordinating sparkly animal t-shirt dresses and tall white go-go boots\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_6-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VE6sx_rShRJZVxmFtzxPPolQaT8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_31_574724799_18541701601056426_6431609251781599757_n-adc9d4071d0846f385f918608b3a736d.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/VE6sx_rShRJZVxmFtzxPPolQaT8=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_31_574724799_18541701601056426_6431609251781599757_n-adc9d4071d0846f385f918608b3a736d.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Sabrina Carpenter and Veronika Slowikowska wear coordinating sparkly animal t-shirt dresses and tall white go-go boots\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_6-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@veronika_iscool \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_38-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> As bite-sized standup clips enter the algorithm, some comedians catch the eye of #FashionTok with a healthy dose of trending pieces. Slowikowska rotates paid fashion partnerships with her short-form skits on Instagram. Sherman, meanwhile, is nearly as well-known for her clown-inspired maximalism as her faux newscaster bit on SNL.

Others even take this a step further by choosing unconventional red carpet outfits to let more political messages take center stage\u2014like when Stalter arrived at the 2025 Emmys carrying a black leather bag with &#8220;cease fire&#8221; taped to the side. Even when the goal is more serious, comedians&#8217; creative flair often gives a more accessible, internet-friendly entry point into meaningful discussions.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_43-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Comedians have mastered the intricacies of language and storytelling to captivate audiences. Those comedy sets aren\u2019t always fluff and dating horror stories: They comment on current events, shine a mirror to society at large, and present their POV in a unique way. Fashion has become a well-established extracurricular (and clear communication tool) for the funniest women of today.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"loc article-post-content\">\n<div id=\"beauty-breadcrumbs--chips_1-0\" class=\"comp beauty-breadcrumbs--chips mntl-universal-breadcrumbs--chips mntl-block\">\n<div id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__read-more_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__read-more mntl-text-block text-title-100\">Read more:<\/div>\n<ul id=\"mntl-universal-breadcrumbs_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-universal-breadcrumbs mntl-block text-label-300 breadcrumbs\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<li id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__item_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__item mntl-block\"><span class=\"link__wrapper\">News<\/span><\/li>\n<li id=\"mntl-breadcrumbs__item_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-breadcrumbs__item mntl-block\"><span class=\"link__wrapper\">Celebrities<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<div class=\"loc article-content\">\n<div id=\"article__broad-video-jw_1-0\" class=\"comp article__broad-video-jw mntl-jwplayer-broad mntl-block is-hidden\" data-pixel-depth=\"100\">\n<div id=\"mntl-jwplayer-broad__title_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-jwplayer-broad__title mntl-block\"><button id=\"mntl-jwplayer-broad__title-icon--close_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-jwplayer-broad__title-icon--close mntl-block text-label-100\" data-click-tracked=\"false\"><span id=\"mntl-text-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-text-block\">Close<\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-block_2-0\" class=\"comp mntl-block article__body right-rail\">\n<figure id=\"mntl-universal-primary-image_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-universal-primary-image primary-image\" data-tracking-container=\"true\">\n<div class=\"primary-image__media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/KQ-GXb5sv00wWsaNSfnfjs9VgEo=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_FemaleComedians_LeadRecirc-5a4995499349475093b8aaed76463765.jpg\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Nikki Glaser, Quinta Brunson, Meg Stalter, and Ziwe Fumudoh\" class=\" primary-image__image mntl-primary-image--blurry\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/KQ-GXb5sv00wWsaNSfnfjs9VgEo=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_FemaleComedians_LeadRecirc-5a4995499349475093b8aaed76463765.jpg\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"loaded primary-img--noscript primary-image__image mntl-primary-image--blurry\" alt=\"Nikki Glaser, Quinta Brunson, Meg Stalter, and Ziwe Fumudoh\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"primary-image__figcap_1-0\" class=\"comp primary-image__figcap mntl-figure-caption figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@quintab \/ @nikkiglaser \/ @megstalter \/ Instagram \/ Getty Images \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-page_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-page mntl-block\" data-sc-sticky-offset=\"125\" data-sc-ad-label-height=\"16\" data-sc-ad-track-spacing=\"100\" data-sc-min-track-height=\"250\" data-sc-max-track-height=\"600\" data-sc-breakpoint=\"50em\" data-sc-load-immediate=\"5\" data-sc-content-positions=\"[1, 1250, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]\" data-bind-scroll-on-start=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We could all use a laugh, couldn\u2019t we? Fresh off the heels of the Year of the Pop Girl, today\u2019s most iconic comedians are establishing their footing as style icons. While they&#8217;ve been hard at work for years, the past year or two has been a particularly ripe moment for their success: Think Nikki Glaser&#8217;s Golden Globes hosting streak (and awards circuit glam), Mary Beth Barone&#8217;s red carpet banter, and Ziwe&#8217;s high-profile interviews with plenty of candied cropped suits to match. It turns out there\u2019s a real power to packing punchlines and style prowess.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Female comedians are dominating the space at the moment, and they\u2019re bringing their stylists&#8217; greatest charms with them.

Always chic, polished, and characteristically confident, she&#8217;s also dabbled in more high-profile glam and archival pulls as she&#8217;s spent more time in the spotlight.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We also turn our attention to Mary Beth Barone, who\u2019s fluent in designers as well as dry, pared-back quips on life, love, and the cultural impact of the Spice Girls. Earlier this month, she wore an archival Todd Oldham gown when interviewing stars at the Golden Globes, and we won\u2019t soon forget it.

And of course, we can\u2019t forget the infinitely funny Meg Stalter of <em>Hacks<\/em> and <em>Too Much<\/em>,\u00a0who brings a punch of color (and a little well-placed attitude) to modern trends.

Others even take this a step further by choosing unconventional red carpet outfits to let more political messages take center stage\u2014like when Stalter arrived at the 2025 Emmys carrying a black leather bag with &#8220;cease fire&#8221; taped to the side. Even when the goal is more serious, comedians&#8217; creative flair often gives a more accessible, internet-friendly entry point into meaningful discussions.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_43-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Comedians have mastered the intricacies of language and storytelling to captivate audiences. Those comedy sets aren\u2019t always fluff and dating horror stories: They comment on current events, shine a mirror to society at large, and present their POV in a unique way. Fashion has become a well-established extracurricular (and clear communication tool) for the funniest women of today.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"mntl-sc-page_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-page mntl-block\" data-sc-sticky-offset=\"125\" data-sc-ad-label-height=\"16\" data-sc-ad-track-spacing=\"100\" data-sc-min-track-height=\"250\" data-sc-max-track-height=\"600\" data-sc-breakpoint=\"50em\" data-sc-load-immediate=\"5\" data-sc-content-positions=\"[1, 1250, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]\" data-bind-scroll-on-start=\"true\">\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We could all use a laugh, couldn\u2019t we? Fresh off the heels of the Year of the Pop Girl, today\u2019s most iconic comedians are establishing their footing as style icons. While they&#8217;ve been hard at work for years, the past year or two has been a particularly ripe moment for their success: Think Nikki Glaser&#8217;s Golden Globes hosting streak (and awards circuit glam), Mary Beth Barone&#8217;s red carpet banter, and Ziwe&#8217;s high-profile interviews with plenty of candied cropped suits to match. It turns out there\u2019s a real power to packing punchlines and style prowess.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_3-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Female comedians are dominating the space at the moment, and they\u2019re bringing their stylists&#8217; greatest charms with them.

Always chic, polished, and characteristically confident, she&#8217;s also dabbled in more high-profile glam and archival pulls as she&#8217;s spent more time in the spotlight.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_10-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> We also turn our attention to Mary Beth Barone, who\u2019s fluent in designers as well as dry, pared-back quips on life, love, and the cultural impact of the Spice Girls. Earlier this month, she wore an archival Todd Oldham gown when interviewing stars at the Golden Globes, and we won\u2019t soon forget it. She looked every bit the cool fashion girl as her smart, sarcastic coverage led many to call her &#8220;the next Joan Rivers.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_12-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-landscape figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_1-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/fIEaJzPJb6dL8NNWe8EvHL-_oxg=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/Byr_LeadRecirc-90372568302742b495971bdc9c757b7d.png\" width=\"4000\" height=\"3000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Mary Beth Barone wears a tied shirt crop top at left and a red Vivienne Westwood dress at right\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_1-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@marybethbarone \/ Instagram \/ Byrdie<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_13-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> You might also watch Nikki Glaser, who&#8217;s become one of the freshest voices in the historic boys&#8217; club of awards show hosts, or viral SNL cast members-turned-style icons like Chloe Fineman, Sarah Sherman (aka Sarah Squirm), and Veronika Slowikowska. And of course, we can\u2019t forget the infinitely funny Meg Stalter of <em>Hacks<\/em> and <em>Too Much<\/em>,\u00a0who brings a punch of color (and a little well-placed attitude) to modern trends.

Mismatched tops!)\n<\/p>\n<figure id=\"mntl-sc-block_40-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-image mntl-sc-block-image figure-portrait figure-high-res\">\n<div class=\"figure-media\">\n<div class=\"img-placeholder\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" alt=\"Sarah Sherman wearing orange patterned dress, red fishnet tights, and chunky brown Fluevog clogs\" class=\"lazyload mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" id=\"mntl-sc-block-image_7-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/cy2U5fHDpv6jhDvFPOUrWX7FmBQ=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_58_626192434_18560900545013887_9084506059192764171_n-6bd400e4c6324b5e9eae51c0ed11dfa0.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/cy2U5fHDpv6jhDvFPOUrWX7FmBQ=\/1500x0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():format(webp)\/imgi_58_626192434_18560900545013887_9084506059192764171_n-6bd400e4c6324b5e9eae51c0ed11dfa0.jpg\" width=\"1500\" height=\"2000\" class=\"img--noscript mntl-image mntl-image universal-image__image\" alt=\"Sarah Sherman wearing orange patterned dress, red fishnet tights, and chunky brown Fluevog clogs\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption id=\"mntl-figure-caption_7-0\" class=\"comp mntl-figure-caption text-utility-100 figure-article-caption\"><span class=\"figure-article-caption-owner\"><\/p>\n<p>@fluevog \/ Instagram<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_41-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> While their specific methods vary, the starring female comedians of today are achieving style icon status via a tongue-in-cheek disregard of conventional trends and a distinct freeness from patriarchal beauty standards. Others even take this a step further by choosing unconventional red carpet outfits to let more political messages take center stage\u2014like when Stalter arrived at the 2025 Emmys carrying a black leather bag with &#8220;cease fire&#8221; taped to the side. Even when the goal is more serious, comedians&#8217; creative flair often gives a more accessible, internet-friendly entry point into meaningful discussions.\n<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"mntl-sc-block_43-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-heading mntl-sc-block-heading\"><span class=\"mntl-sc-block-heading__text text-title-300\"> The Final Takeaway <\/span><\/h2>\n<p id=\"mntl-sc-block_44-0\" class=\"comp mntl-sc-block beauty-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"> Comedians have mastered the intricacies of language and storytelling to captivate audiences. Those comedy sets aren\u2019t always fluff and dating horror stories: They comment on current events, shine a mirror to society at large, and present their POV in a unique way. Fashion has become a well-established extracurricular (and clear communication tool) for the funniest women of today.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/female-comedians-style-11892686&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/www.byrdie.com\/thmb\/3MEKKpjBF9I-W9TS6yL-P8dg57A=\/1500&#215;0\/filters:no_upscale():max_bytes(150000):strip_icc()\/Byr_FemaleComedians_Social-cb445ab5d6ed4bbb8817524ed65d06ab.jpg&#8221;] Female Comedians Are Finally Getting Their Flowers By Nicolette Baker Nicolette Baker Nicolette Baker is a contributor for Byrdie.
