Anderson can always be counted on for a style moment. She practically broke the internet when she showed up at the 2024 Golden Globes in a gorgeous dress covered in vulva-shaped embroidery created by Gabriella Hearst.

"[I wore it] for so many reasons," the actress told Deadline of the female anatomy covered design, adding, "it's brand appropriate."

Inside the show, she told PEOPLE that the dress has a floral inspiration, noting what she loved most about it was that “it’s covered in peonies!”

She took to Instagram following the award show to share a behind-the-scenes look at her day — and to drop a cheeky photo eating a sausage.

In the carousel caption, she even nodded to her viral dress, joking, "Sometimes you just need a sausage to go with your yoni dress."
