All eyes were on Jennifer Lopez as she stunned at the Los Angeles premiere of “Wicked” over the weekend. The multitalented superstar turned heads in a bewitching Zuhair Murad gown that put her famous curves on full display.
Skin-Baring Stunner
The “Selena” actress arrived at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion on Saturday night looking positively radiant in the skin-baring, beaded brown-and-cream dress. The halter-style gown featured a high slit and cutouts at the waist that left her toned back exposed.
Lopez, 55, paired the daring look with strappy diamond-covered nude heels, bejeweled bracelets by SABYASACHI, and a sparkly clutch. She styled her hair in a loose updo with two face-framing curls, paying homage to the effortless glamour of French icon Brigitte Bardot.
“J.Lo Glow” On Full Display
Regarding her glam, Rokael Lizama, the makeup artist for the “I’m Real” singer, revealed that he utilized his “dazzling eyeshadows” to achieve her signature “J.Lo Glow.” The result was a sultry, smoldering eye look that perfectly complemented the bejeweled dress.
Hairstylist Andrew Fitzsimons revealed the inspiration behind Lopez’s voluminous, Bardot-inspired updo.
“I started by doing a bouncy blowout using my @wavytalkofficial Pro Fast-drying Hairdryer, then sectioned the hair and clipped in my hair extensions in horizontal rows, one row backward at the nape of the neck and one row forward to create more volume,” he wrote on Instagram.
“Once the extensions were securely in place, I sprayed the hair with @andrewfitzsimonshair Après Sexe Texture Spray, gathered it up, twisted it to create this effortless Bardot-style updo, and secured it with hair pins,” Fitzsimons added. He finished the look by adding two single clip-ins at the front of Lopez’s hair for extra volume and movement.
A Hotly Anticipated “Wicked” Premiere
Lopez’s head-turning appearance at the “Wicked” premiere comes on the heels of her global press tour for the upcoming film “Unstoppable.” Earlier this month, the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” songstress stunned in London, wearing a white mohair Magda Butrym halter dress, matching alpaca jacket, and scalloped Christian Louboutin pumps.
And just a few days later, the mom of two stepped out in a plunging bow-embellished minidress and a sleek synthetic fur coat.
Reigning Queen Of The Revenge Dress
With her latest string of showstopping looks, Lopez is solidifying her status as the undisputed queen of the revenge dress. Since news broke of her high-profile divorce from Ben Affleck, the singer has been turning heads with a series of daring, head-turning ensembles. Lopez is unstoppable, as evidenced by her nearly-naked silver gown at the “Unstoppable” premiere and her ab-baring turtleneck crop top during her reunion with Affleck.
As the “Mother” actress told People magazine of her decision to wear that silver Ralph & Russo gown, “There was a discussion about whether I should or shouldn’t. And I was like, f*** it.” With her effortless glamour and unwavering confidence, Jennifer Lopez continues to prove time and time again that she is the true Queen of the Revenge Dress.
