Gwyneth Paltrow Made Head-To-Toe Black Anything But Boring

by Laura Lajiness Kaupke

Gwyneth Paltrow consistently projects polish, whether she’s wearing an $18 pair of H&M leggings or a couture Valentino creation. With a preternatural ability to show off her enviable physique in an age-appropriate manner, the actress and Goop founder frequently reaches for fitted minis, tailored separates and flowing gowns. (And we’ll never forget her iconic Calvin Klein sequined slip dress while on the arm of Brad Pitt at the 1996 Oscars, to which she gave a subtle nod at this year’s Met Gala in a design by Raf Simons for Calvin Klein.)

She’s also one to expertly embrace the tried-and-true combination of head-to-toe black via a high-neck blouse and wide-leg trousers by Goop Label. The pairing is universally flattering on every body type and a fail-safe option when you’re rushing out the door. While her exact pieces won’t be available to shop until next week, we found similar affordable items to recreate her look. Ahead, see and shop the GP’s all-black outfit, then continue on for more inspiration as we recount her best looks to date.
