On Monday, the supermodel, 55, revealed that the gown she wore to the annual 2024Vanity FairOscar Party after the2024 Oscarshappened to be a look she already wore — years before.
“So excited I was able to get back into one of my favorite dresses I’ve worn on the runway, 1996,” she began in anInstagrampost.
She added, “Corset not entirely closed up but that’ll be my little secret 😉.”
Her black, sweetheart neckline gown is from John Galliano Spring/Summer 1996. On her right shoulder, extending past her bust is a black and white ruffle.
For her 2024 look, Christensen wore her hair parted to the side as her curls channeled an Old Hollywood glam vibe. She wore a bold red lip and coordinated with manicured red nails.
