“Glamorous” isn’t exactly a word that comes to mind to describe Netflix’s Sex Education, but as it turns out, it’s definitely a word that could describe the show’s cast. The hilarious British comedy tells the story of the son of a sex therapist and his messy, awkward, and sometimes sweet misadventures with his friends and classmates, and it’s a pretty great depiction of just how painfully awkward being a teenager can be. Off screen, though, the cast members clean up pretty good when they step out for red carpets and other high-style events. Keep reading to see some of the cast’s best red carpet moments – and see them side-by-side with their characters!
