Julia Roberts is known for her excellent suiting. Her latest tailoring fix is an athletic departure from the quietly brilliant styles that defined her red-carpet style in the ’90s and Noughties. Unlike the louche grey Armani tailoring she wore to the Golden Globes in 1990—hello, power shoulders!—Roberts’s new Adidas X Gucci suit, which she wore to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live with her Ticket To Paradise co-star George Clooney, has contemporary flair.
The sports luxe suit is very “look at me”. See: the fuzzy cuffs, logos, and three stripes on the jacket and trousers. A nod to her Golden Globes appearance came in the form of a tie, which was tucked neatly beneath her blazer.
Gucci’s creative director Alessandro Michele often looks to retro silhouettes for his seasonal collections and Roberts’s beige suit served as a prime example. The double-breasted jacket fitted closely to her body and the trousers were wide with cuffs. Keep the effortlessly cool suits coming, Julia.
