When it comes to making our friends feel special, we often resort to sending cards or treating them to something delightful. But Julia Roberts took it to the next level at the Kennedy Center Honors this month. Julia showed her support for her co-star in the movie “Ticket to Paradise,” George Clooney, in a truly unique and thoughtful way.
A Dress Adorned with Clooney’s Photos
George Clooney was honored with a prestigious award at the Kennedy Center Honors, and to commemorate this special occasion, Julia Roberts wore a dress adorned with photos of his face. Each image, framed in gold, showcased the talented actor from his red carpet appearances to his iconic role on ER. It was a clever and creative way to celebrate Clooney’s accomplishments and their friendship.
As Roberts walked onto the stage, Clooney was completely taken aback and exclaimed, “Wow!” He was genuinely surprised and touched by this thoughtful display of support from his friend Julia. The dress truly made a bold and unforgettable statement.
A Playful Moment
Julia Roberts couldn’t help but add some charm and playfulness to the moment. As she stepped onto the stage, she jokingly said, “What? What is this old thing?… Can you tell I’m here for Gladys Knight?” Her lighthearted comment highlighted the playful nature of their friendship and added to the joyous atmosphere.
A Collaborative Effort
Now, you may be wondering how Roberts managed to acquire such a one-of-a-kind outfit. Unfortunately, this unique design is not available for purchase. It was put together by Jeremy Scott, Moschino’s creative designer, and styled by Elizabeth Stewart. It truly was a collaborative effort to create a dress that would make a statement and highlight the bond between Clooney and Roberts.
To complete the look, Roberts wore a black cropped jacket, adding a touch of modesty that didn’t distract from honoring the recipient of the award. She also adorned herself with stunning Chopard jewelry, adding an extra touch of glamour to the ensemble.
Sharing the Joy on Social Media
Elizabeth Stewart’s Instagram account, shared by Serge Normant, provided us with a glimpse of the back of the dress. The photo, playfully captioned “#juliaframedgeorge,” showed the lighthearted and fun approach they took to this fashion moment. It’s evident that the joy and friendship between Clooney and Roberts extended beyond the stage.
On her own Instagram, Roberts expressed her gratitude for her stunning look, saying, “My gown playing favorites! Thank you very much, @jeremyscott, @elizabethstewart1, and @moschino, for making my dream dress a reality! George, I’m so happy to watch you receive this highest accolade @kennedycenter on December 28.”
A Fashion Statement of Friendship
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then we truly don’t have enough space to emphasize just how much we love all the pictures on Julia’s dress. This unique fashion statement perfectly showcased the friendship between two Hollywood stars and brought joy to the Kennedy Center Honors.
