Stepping out at the Landman Season 2 screening in LA, Demi Moore made a case for bringing denim back to the red carpet. While we often associate these moments with high-end designer frocks, or embellished designs, Demi bucked the trend by wearing a denim midi dress by much-loved jeans brand, Gap.
If you've been following the denim trends, you'll know that denim dresses have only been growing in popularity. Spotted wearing a Gap Studio seamed denim cap-sleeve midi dress, the dress is only available in the US, and is part of the high-end diffusion line 'Gap Studio' by Gap creative director Zac Posen. However, this similar style lighter blue GAP seamed denim midi is available in the UK too.
The figure-hugging, pencil dress silhouette had an almost corset-like fit, with multiple panels and seam detailing that helped to sculpt Demi's frame. With a scoop neckline that only furthered the corset-style aesthetic, this was a directional and creative take on the denim dress, elevating this look to a new level.
