Porter, who rocked instantly iconic looks at the Golden Globes, the Oscars and the Met Gala earlier this year, said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the train of the gown features a pattern in the shape of uterus.

I was actually going to watch the Tonys this year.  But on the way I got side tracked by Celebrity Family Feud and Pyramid.

Devine intervention perhaps?
