Molly Shannon appeared on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Thursday, giving a romantic twist on the little black dress.
The actress wore a black lace embroidered dress with a flare sleeve and a thigh-high slit. She coordinated the dress with black crystal-embellished heeled sandals.
During her segment on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” Shannon discussed how it felt to get back into the groove of “Saturday Night Live” after being away from variety shows for so long, the time she did an impersonation of Courtney Love and her memoir “Hello Molly!” which was released on April 12 last year.
