The dress in question was designed by Ralph Lauren and is a beautiful baby pink shade. According to Marie Claire, Gwyneth Paltrow actually didn’t have a stylist at the time and picked out the dress at Ralph Lauren herself a few days before the 1999 Academy Awards. Simple yet chic, the dress apparently didn’t have the top part seen on Paltrow, but instead one with more of a corset style. By changing it, Paltrow ensured the dress would remain timeless whilst also embodying the straightforward cuts of that fashion era.
Paired with a matching pink shawl, the dress was accessorized with a Harry Winston diamond jewelry set that included a choker, earrings, and bracelet. Paltrow told reporters on the red carpet that she didn’t want to feel pressured on the night by turning up in a statement look, instead stating, “I just tuned it all out and wore what I thought was pretty.” The look clearly worked, as Paltrow glowed in the soft pink color. Plus, it was saved from looking too dull by the diamond accessories, which helped to turn it into a memorable look. Chokers were a major trend of the 1990s and have made a comeback in recent years, showing that they are always a staple jewelry item.
