Demi Moore’s LBD Is Winter Weather-Ready Thanks to This Edgy Outerwear Trend
The actress brought grunge glam to the red carpet with a little help from Gap.
No one wears a little black dress quite like Demi Moore. The actress, who has been a Hollywood mainstay since the early 1980s, has been back in the spotlight recently for her standout role as Elisabeth Sparkle in The Substance. But the real star on Monday night wasn't her acting career: it was her LBD, which she cleverly winterized with a cropped leather moto jacket from GapStudio, designed by executive vice president and creative director Zac Posen.
Combining the timelessness of the LBD, also GapStudio, with a decidedly grunge accessory, Moore's ensemble delivered the perfect balance of edgy-meets-chic. And while the oversized leather jacket was a dominant trend this fall, Moore's decision to opt for its cropped cousin makes me wonder: Will winter usher in a new silhouette in the realm of outerwear? It certainly wouldn't be the first time that the actress sparked a new trend, and I have a feeling it won't be the last, either.
As for the rest of The Substance promo tour, Moore has showed off her fashion range with a bevy of looks. In Toronto, she single-handedly revived '90s menswear style in an updated take on the three-piece suit; in Los Angeles, she stunned in a shimmering red gown from Oscar de la Renta. Then, in London, she switched it up yet again with casual parachute pants and a preppy blazer from Loewe. All of which is to say: there is no look Moore hasn't tried—or mastered—in the past year alone, never mind the past 40.
Moore's lead role in The Substance is only her second job since her unofficial return to acting with Feud: Capote vs. The Swans, which premiered earlier this year on FX. After the show came out, Moore explained that while she had never officially quit acting, she had considered it.
“I went through a period of even questioning whether this is what I should still be doing," Moore told Entertainment Weekly in May. "In the last four years or so, I felt that it was a personal question that I wanted to explore and see. Was this where I should be putting my energy? When you plant seeds, you wait to see what grows.”
