'We finally met in person!' Caitlyn Jenner and Laverne Cox enjoys girls' night at a special screening of I Am Cait
They are high-profile celebrities and passionate advocates for the LGBT community.
So it's only natural that Caitlyn Jenner and Laverne Cox would bond over their shared desire to spread awareness of the transgender cause.
The ladies got together with pals for a special screening of Caitlyn's docu-series I Am Cait on Sunday and posed for a snap together, cementing their new friendship.

Meeting of minds: Caitlyn Jenner and Laverne Cox finally met at a private screening of I Am Cait on Sunday
Laverne, star of Orange Is The New Black captioned the image: '@caitlynjenner and I finally met in person at a special private advance screening of #IAmCait. #TransIsBeautiful #girlslikeus
The statuesque beauty wore a black cropped top and patterned mini skirt for the event while 65-year-old Caitlyn opted for a semi-casual ensemble.
Teaming a white top with sheer trim with some pale blue jeans, the former Olympian looked relaxed as she posed alongside the actress and six other women.

I Am Cait doesn't premiere on E! until July 26, so no doubt the girls were excited to get a sneak peek.
It was a far more low-key occasion than Saturday night when Caitlyn painted the town red, heading to West Hollywood gay nightspot The Abbey.

Caitlyn wore a black leather wrap dress for the outing, teaming it with jewel-encrusted strappy heels.
The reality star was spotted sipping cocktails at one of the booths with Candis, who was also her guest at the ESPYs.
Candis, who has served as something of a mentor to Caitlyn as she finds her feet in the transgender community, was sporting a dazzling silver sequined dress.
The star is not believed to be dating anyone currently - and rumours that she and Candis are more than friends were quickly quashed - but son Brody Jenner is more than willing to set her up.
'Caitlyn likes women, so it wouldn't be too hard to find a chick for Caitlyn,' the Hills star recently said on radio show Swag In The Morning, before adding, 'I mean, why not?'
Candis Cayne - who also there for girls' night - has served as something of a mentor to Caitlyn as she finds her feet in the transgender community. She was also the reality star's guest on Wednesdy night
