There are trousers, and then there are *trousers—*and Amanda Seyfried’s are the latter.
The Dropout actor attended Variety‘s Power of Women event in NYC on May 5 wearing a monochromatic aqua two-piece set consisting of a mock neck short-sleeve sweater and pleated wide-leg trousers.
The flow of the trousers gives the illusion of a maxi skirt, but don’t be fooled. Structured at the top and sitting just under the bust, the trousers appear to have corset-like boning, or at least thick, sturdy pleat. The super-wide leg makes Seyfried appear at least 5’10”. (According to Google, she’s actually 5’2″.)

Her honey-blonde hair was parted in the middle and styled in loose waves, while she kept her makeup fresh with a fuchsia lip (a nice complement to the aqua) and full brows.
Seyfried accepted her honor with an introduction from her friend, comedian Sarah Silverman. She also used her time on stage to advocate for the International Network for Aid, Relief and Assistance (INARA), a nonprofit which “works with children from conflict areas who have suffered physical and mental harm,” according to the organization’s website.
In her speech, the Mamma Mia! actor spoke not only about the need to support refugees, but about the recent news that the Supreme Court has voted to overturn Roe v. Wade. “Women’s safety and security, as we have just been reminded, is far too often negotiable,” she said. “And it’s not negotiable to me.”
