Actress Jane Krakowski wore a dust pink and black gown by India-born designer Bibhu Mohapatra for the Emmy awards ceremony, in which she was nominated in the outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series category.
Mohapatra, who is based in New York, hails from Rourkela in Odisha. The designer took to twitter to share a picture of the 46-year-old "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" star.
"Best Supporting actress nominee janekrakowski in @bibhumohapatra #Resort16 silk Barthea gown," Mohapatra posted.
On the Emmys red carpet, Krakowski revealed she had auditioned for the part of Rachel Green on the iconic sitcom "Friends".
"I, like almost every actor in the world, auditioned for 'Friends'. I wish I had gotten that one. I actually auditioned for Rachel and didn't go very far," Krakowski told Us magazine.
The actress also joked that her business manager was "very sad" that she did not get the part.
The character of Rachel was ultimately played by actress Jennifer Aniston, which turned out to be her breakout role, making her the show's most famous cast member and spawning her successful film career.
As Rachel, Aniston won both an Emmy Award for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series and a Golden Globe award.
"Friends" lasted ten seasons, airing from September 22, 1994, to May 6, 2004.
