Demi Moore and her daughter Scout Willis have been doing the rounds as a double act at fashion events recently, and on Tuesday night they walked the red carpet together at the Fashion Trust US Awards in Hollywood, ahead of Scout’s performance during the ceremony. They clearly planned their outfits together (or should we say their stylists did), as they both opted for saturated brights, with Scout in an electric-pink, floor-sweeping evening gown, and Demi, 60, in an apple-green slip dress.
Moore’s vibrant slip dress has a ’90s feel thanks to the square neckline, thick straps and sheer overlay of fabric with an asymmetric hemline. The star added some extra glamour to the look with a floor-length coat draped over her arms, and black court shoes with sharp pointed toes—a style that made a comeback on the fall 2023 runways at Christopher Kane and Prada, among others.
A slip dress is a timeless option for the red carpet, and a shape Moore has worn many times throughout her career. One of the most memorable looks from her archives is a sheer emerald slip she wore to attend a Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle premiere with then partner Ashton Kutcher in 2003. Although she took a riskier styling approach in the early Noughties—the low neckline exposed her black lace bra and she added black fishnet tights—her approach to accessories hasn’t changed: both times she selected a handbag in the same shade of green as the slip dress.
Demi has been enjoying something of a fashion renaissance lately – last January she opened Kim Jones’s Fendi Haute Couture spring 2021 show, walking alongside the likes of Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Bella Hadid and Adwoa Aboah, and in fashion month she sat on the front row at the Versace and Saint Laurent shows.
