You know you’ve really made it when you can reference yourself on the red carpet. To have an archive of iconic looks that are relevant enough to call on today is a status that few A-listers carry. And to do so three times, like Gwyneth Paltrow just did? That's the stamp of a true icon. Last night at the premiere of The Brothers Sun in Los Angeles, the Goop founder dressed in a monochromatic red look by Cong Tri that called back to her cherry red 1996 VMAs suit—which she also referenced in 2021. The takeaway? Paltrow's red top and maxi skirt confirm the red color trend that dominated 2023 isn’t going away anytime soon.
For her first red carpet debut of 2024, the multi-hyphenate beamed in all-red while supporting her husband Brad Falchuk’s new movie, The Brothers Sun. She wore a red long-sleeve top with a plunging scoop neckline and paired it with a matching red wool maxi skirt from Cong Tri’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection. For accessories, she added a matching skinny belt that blended into her skirt, and the cherry on top of her look (quite literally) was her dark red Paris Texas pointed-toe heels. She wore her long blonde hair down and added gold dangling earrings. For makeup, Paltrow wore a nude eye and natural lip for a no-makeup makeup illusion.
