The 45-year-old actress dropped jaws in a royal purple mini dress that was entirely covered in feathers at the bottom. She accessorized the look with dangling pearl earrings and a pair of classic white heels. Washington posed for photos outside of The View studios, where she appeared as a guest on the Oct. 26 episode. While sitting down with hosts of the daytime show, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin, who also couldn’t help but swoon over the actress’ stunning attire for the event. “I always try to clean up for you ladies. I try to bring my A-game for the view,” Washington told the co-hosts, while Behar called the feathered dress a “tutu on steroids.” During the conversation, Washington opened up about her experience being an active political voice in Hollywood, which Behar pointed out can be “tricky” at times, especially for an actress. “I don’t talk politics because I’m an actor; I talk about politics because I’m an American. I live here,” the Scandal alum explained while receiving a roar of applause from the audience. “I care about the things that happen here, and so I never want to give up my right to be politically engaged because that’s what a democracy is.” “Nobody should be abandoning their voice,” she said, while also expressing the importance of everyone getting out and casting their votes in the upcoming midterm elections.
