Jennifer Lopez is ready to be a divorcee again, donning a "revenge dress" on a red carpet in Toronto
Fresh from a divorce, Jennifer Lopez can't wait to be a sexy single again on the red carpet, which predicably means dressing to flaunt considerable bare skin. Ms Lopez has always used the red carpet to assert her preferred, look-at-me near-nudity. And this time, at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), the 55-year-old showed, once again, that for some women, underclothes are, indeed, optional or best dispensed with. Her glittery show up—applauded as "revenged dressing"—was necessarily congruent with the name of her new movie that premiered at TIFF: Unstoppable. And consistent with many celebrities' love of no-discernible-fashion-as-fashion to augment their fashion standing. And to say that age is nothing but a useless, moot, inconvenient number. Undeterred can be an appreciable trait.
Ms Lopez, for whom dressed often means partly—hence unsurprising, donned a floor-grazing sheath by Tamara Ralph, the Aussie designer who is one half of the London-based high fashion label Ralph & Russo. Essentially two oblong sequinned pieces held together by oversized velvet bows, the front and back were deliberately narrow so that she could air a good part of the two outward-facing sides of her breasts. The bows that held together those parts below her hips were positioned below the rump to leave camera lenses and viewers with no ambiguity that she went commando down there. High slits were replaced by total splits. As usual, the media lauded her style with the familiar affirmative verbs—she "dazzled", "stunned", "slayed", and "rocked". It'll be marvelous that decades down the road, many will still say the same, and clap.
