Fierce! Transparent’s Amy Landecker and Black-ish’s Jenifer Lewis hit the red carpet in matching St. John pantsuits. But they both put their own unique spin on the animal-print set.

Landecker, 47, took a walk on the (more) casual side by pairing her ensemble with strappy heels and black polish.

Lewis, 60, vamped up the pattern with a red bustier, silver clutch and black pumps. Va-va-voom!

Stylish caught up with Landecker — a very good sport! — to quiz her on the coincidence. Here’s what she said:

Stylish: How did you pick this outfit?

Amy Landecker: This was a last minute switch! I had a Siriano suit that didn’t close, we could not get it closed. And Molly Fishkin, who’s my stylist, is going to die! [Laughs.]

Stylish: At least you’re matching with someone really fabulous!

AL: I know, I’m really excited! She’s also a huge advocate for the trans community, so I feel honored. Honestly I follow her, I love her work, I think she’s brilliant, she’s also very aligned with all the causes that I’m aligned with, so it’s an honor and a privilege.

Stylish: What’s your first reaction when you see someone in the same outfit?

AL: I never … honestly it’s also quite a bold goddamn outfit! Right? Sorry, I will say my daughter was not into me wearing this. The Siriano was black and more simple, and this is a statement! I’m wearing a leopard suit!

Stylish: What did Jenifer say when you went up to her?

AL: She was very happy. Actors love attention and we got a lot more attention together! She came up to me and said, “Honey, we’re way more famous now because we’ve got each other!” It’s true. I’m like, “Wow, this is going to be the best awards show of my life!” [Laughs.]
