Gwyneth Paltrow Shines in Carolina Herrera's Yellow Elegance at 2023 Red Sea International Film Festival
Gwyneth
Paltrow, the Goop founder and Oscar winner at 51, graced the red carpet during
the closing ceremony of the 2023 Red Sea International Film Festival in Jeddah,
Saudi Arabia, on Thursday evening.
Draped in a
stunning vibrant yellow sarong gown from Carolina Herrera’s Resort 2024
collection, Paltrow showcased shirred puff sleeves with a ruching effect,
leading to an oversized belted bow at her waist. The dress boasted a modest
boat neckline and a daring thigh-high slit at its center.
Completing
her ensemble, Paltrow paired the gown with yellow open-toe platform heels,
accentuating her look with diamond and gold drop earrings and a selection of
dainty rings. Her blonde hair was elegantly styled in a slick back bun,
complementing her makeup that featured a peach-tinted lip gloss and bright
mauve eyeshadow.
Engaging in
a compelling discussion with "In Conversation" moderator Jomana
Al-Rashid at the festival, Paltrow revealed the profound influence of her
mother, Blythe Danner, in shaping her early perception of acting.
Reflecting
on her childhood, Paltrow shared, “My mother is an actress. She did mostly
theater. And so I grew up as a little girl watching her rehearse plays and
running around the theater.” She added, “When she was on stage, she was the
most powerful, integrated force of nature that I have ever seen. And so I
wanted to be that.”
The Red Sea
International Film Festival saw a gathering of Hollywood luminaries, with Halle
Berry, Zoe Saldaña, Naomi Campbell, Diane Kruger, Freida Pinto, Sofia Vergara,
Michelle Williams, Johnny Depp, and Will Smith all gracing the Thursday night
red carpet alongside Paltrow.
Before her
appearance in Saudi Arabia, the actress attended The Fashion Awards 2023 at The
Royal Albert Hall in London, donned in an all-red vintage Valentino outfit. The
strapless, empire-waist gown hailed from the designer’s autumn/winter 1965
couture collection, featuring a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit.
Completing
the look, Paltrow adorned herself with a long, dramatic Valentino cape,
matching stiletto heels, two wrist bangles, and a pair of dangle-down earrings.
Sharing glimpses on her Instagram Story, including a full-length mirror selfie
and a snapshot featuring her bracelet from Van Cleef & Arpels, the Se7en
actress also posted a black-and-white selfie alongside Valentino co-founder
Giancarlo Giammetti.
