Sofia Vergara arrived on the red carpet at the 2016 Oscars looking just as gorgeous as ever, but she seemed to be missing one very important accessory on her arm...her handsome hubby, Joe Manganiello!

Yes, the Modern Family actress—who will be presenting one of the winners during the show—is riding solo during the big night as Joe began filming a new television show on Sunday.

She chatted with E! News' Ryan Seacrest and explained, "He's not here today! He couldn't come with me. He started filming Six, a TV show that he's doing so he had to leave this morning."

And speaking of her hubby, Sofia joked that he always mimics her accent at home. Sometimes he even gets out of arguments while using it!

"He does it all the time. He talks to me with my accent all the time." she revealed. "He does it great! I laugh all the time. When he wants to tell me something very serious, he does it in my accent so I can't be mean."

Meanwhile, her absent husband wasn't the only thing different about Sofia's look tonight. She revealed that she went for a totally different style all together for the awards show, opting for an old-school Hollywood ensemble with her hair pulled back and a big, Marchesa ball gown.

"It's kind of different for me," she told Seacrest. "The oldies, big dress and hair back, but I like it!"

As for Joe, he swapped out a suit and tie for a uniform, and we have to say, we may like it a little better!

The actor took to Twitter to write, "Figured i'd buck the trend and go sans bowtie with my camo tux this year #Oscars."
