If Jennifer Lawrence is your fashion muse, you’re probably a classic lover. Perfectly oversized wool coats, flats and boyfriend jeans are just some of the elevated basics you’re likely to find her in when it comes to streetwear style, but her red carpet outfit is just as timeless. In fact, one of her favorite formal wears is probably the same as yours: the little black dress. And Lawrence Alaïa’s tight, goddess gown from the 2024 GLAAD Media Awards is proof that you can never go wrong with a good LBD.
The No offense star attended the Recent York City fest on Saturday, May 11, to honor country artist Orville Peck. Since she appeared in a supporting role, Lawrence adopted a more minimalist style. But that doesn’t mean she didn’t stand out on the carpet. From the front slit to the low neckline, details her Deesse dress – paired with her barely-there Maison Ernest sandals, side-swept hair and Jennifer Meyer jewelry – gave the pieces a sultry ’70s vibe.
But this isn’t the first time the Oscar-winning actor has opted for an LBD on the red carpet. At the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival, you could admire her sheer silk Dior gown and an ultra-sexy Versace gown Red Sparrow press release, proving that A-listers’ love for black dresses is well-documented and that there really is one dress for every occasion.
Do you like the way she styled her latest look? The Lawrence GLAAD Awards gown is great inspiration for any glamorous events on your calendar (wedding season is here, after all), and you can channel it by seeking out similarly draped silhouettes in bodycon fabric. Do it the JLaw way by letting the LBD be the star and keeping your accessories classic and minimal. A black clutch bag, black strappy sandals, and sparkly hoops are all you need to make the dress look formal enough to go with black tie, while still allowing the elegant silhouette to take center stage. Trust us, this one will be a welcome addition to your ever-growing collection.
