In June 2014, the inmates from Netflix’s hit show Orange Is the New Black shed their orange and khaki uniforms to glam up for the 4th Annual Critics’ Choice Awards. Do you know how old they were when the series premiered on Netflix on July 11, 2013?
Not only did the show win Best Comedy Series and two more trophies that night, but the ladies also looked pretty impressive on the red carpet!
Actresses Danielle Brooks, Uzo Aduba, Laura Prepon, Natasha Lyonne and Laverne Cox of ‘Orange Is the New Black,’ winner of the Best Comedy Series award, pose for a portrait during the 4th Annual Critics’ Choice Television Awards at The Beverly Hilton Hotel on June 19, 2014, in Beverly Hills, California
1. Uzo Aduba – 32nd Birthday on February 10, 2013
Uzo Aduba, who plays Suzanne “Crazy Eyes” Warren on the show, wore a gorgeous metallic gold vintage dress that she styled with House of Lavande jewelry and an embellished clutch. The talented actress won Guest Performer in a Comedy.
Born on February 10, 1981, in Boston, she turned 32 on February 10, 2013.

2. Laura Prepon – 33rd Birthday On March 7, 2013
Laura Prepon was super sexy in an Alice + Olivia “Ginevia” chiffon dress with a knotted front that showed off major cleavage and a bit of midriff. It also features lace details on the hemline, creating a bit of contrast to the pale frock.
The dress was gorgeous, but the nude hue is totally making Laura a little washed out. Born on March 7, 1980, in Watchung, NJ, she turned 33 on March 7, 2013.

3. Natasha Lyonne – 34th Birthday on April 4, 2013
Natasha Lyonne, who portrays Nicky Nichols, opted for a sophisticated Chloe dress in a sheer fabric, which she styled with a black belt and a black clutch. We’re not too excited about this dress, though, and the hemline is a tad too long for the petite actress.
Born on April 4, 1979, in New York, she turned 34 on April 4, 2013.

4. Laverne Cox – 41st Birthday On May 29, 2013
Going for full glam, Laverne Cox opted to wear a black floor-length Marc Bouwer gown that featured crystal embellishments and sheer side panels. Laverne finished the glamorous look with Erickson Beamon jewelry.
Starring as trans woman Sophia Burset, she was born on May 29, 1972, in Mobile, Alabama, and turned 41 on May 29, 2013.

Danielle Brooks, a.k.a Tasha “Taystee” Jefferson, also wore a lovely frock in a stunning jewel color. The glamorous gown features a caged neckline that added a fierce twist to her sophisticated look.
Born on September 17, 1989, in Augusta, Georgia, she turned 24 on September 17, 2013.
