Rose Byrne was a vision in an eye-catching ensemble as she attended the 41st Annual Film Independent Spirit Awards in Hollywood on Sunday.
The 46-year-old Australian actress – who recently admitted that she has found motherhood ‘challenging’ – joined other celebrities on the red carpet such as Kaia Gerber and Kirsten Dunst.
Byrne received a nomination for Best Lead Performance for her role in the comedic drama If I Had Legs I’d Kick You (2025).

Layers of fabric could be seen on the right side and back of the outfit with additional hues of blue, yellow and green.
Her brunette locks were parted in the middle and pulled back away from her face into a sleek up do.

Byrne’s lead performance in the movie has garnered critical praise and last month in Janaury, she notably won her first ever Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy.
She added a bit of humor to her acceptance speech and shared the reason why her partner Bobby Cannavale did not accompany her to the event at the time.
‘Thanks to my husband Bobby. He isn’t here because we’re getting a bearded dragon, and he went to a reptile expo in New Jersey,’ she revealed to the audience.
The actress went on to add, ‘I didn’t prepare anything, but – I didn’t sing in this movie, guys. Thank you so much my fellow nominees, I just can’t believe I’m here.’
She also joked, ‘Thank you for believing in me and giving me this opportunity. We shot this movie in 25 days for like $8.50!
‘Thank you so much. This is like a tiny film, so this is a huge thing to be up here. And my brother’s my date! Thanks, George. Thanks to, you know, my mum and dad who bought Paramount Plus so they could watch the Golden Globes from Sydney.’
Byrne has reflected in the film’s recent success and critical praise during a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
‘I knew, reading the script, that it was singular and unique and unbelievable. But the rest, I could never anticipate.’

She further explained that she did not predict how the movie – which was written and directed by Mary Bronstein – would connect with the audience.
‘I’ve given up trying to figure out what will resonate and what won’t,’ the actress said. ‘But I knew it was extraordinary and special, and I just knew it was an opportunity.
‘I was like, “Oh my gosh, I cannot mess this up.” It’s a gift for an actress. And I got to try everything: I was stretched. I was challenged – and in a feature film, too, which is so rare to get this opportunity.’
Byrne added, ‘I was so hyper aware of that when I signed on and Mary approached me.’
