There are always dresses that turn up on multiple red carpets — after all, many stars favor the same designers. But when a dress makes four major appearances in Hollywood, it is no longer a coincidence, it’s a trend.
Yesterday we spotted Lucy Liu wearing a foil pleated Proenza Schouler cut-out dress on the “Late Show with David Letterman,” making it the third time we’ve seen an A-lister in this ensemble. Last week, Toni Collette wore the same frock but in a different color and back in October, Rooney Mara rocked the metallic number shortly after it was seen on the Spring 2014 runway.
And if three celebrities wearing one dress isn’t a big enough sign that this is the “It” dress of the season, supermodel Daria Werbowy wore it on the February 2014 cover of Harper’s Bazaar. Oh, and Chanel Iman donned an iteration of the design (though it was a cropped sweater and skirt) for Net-A-Porter’s The Edit “Guiding Light” shoot.
We can’t say we’re surprised that this is the dress of the moment as it combines many major trends: metallic, midi-length hemlines and cut-outs. Also, we totally called this fad from the get-go.
