The comedy Derry Girls is about as unglamorous as it gets, with its cast of tough, loud-mouthed, occasionally goofy Irish teenagers smack dab in the middle of the ’90s. Off the screen, though, they couldn’t be more different. The fantastic group of young actors always turn up looking stylish and stunning at red carpet events, often sticking together to make a pretty gorgeous group! As the show gets more and more popular, we’re pretty sure there are going to be more red carpets in this cast’s future, and we’re equally sure they’ll make a major impression again and again. Keep reading to compare how these actors look in character to how they look all glammed up for the red carpet!
