Dakota Johnson, the 34-year-old Fifty Shades of Grey star, made waves yet again with her daring fashion choices at Milan Fashion Week. After impressing the crowds on the catwalk, she stepped out in another head-turning look as she joined friends for a pizza before heading to the Gucci afterparty on Friday night.
Johnson sported a sexy sheer black bodysuit adorned with Gucci’s iconic print, which she paired with relaxed boyfriend jeans. To add a chic edge to her ensemble, she layered a stylish black crocodile skin blazer over the outfit and completed the look with matching heels.
The star was spotted enjoying a casual meal with her pals before attending the glamorous post-show celebration, hosted by Gucci as part of Milan Fashion Week’s festivities.
Fashion Week Standout
Milan Fashion Week, which runs from 17th to 23rd September 2024, features a mix of 57 runway shows and 69 presentations from some of the most prestigious fashion houses in the industry. Dakota’s appearance at Gucci’s event wasn’t her first notable fashion moment of the week. Earlier that day, she had donned a sheer pink dress for the Gucci runway show, where she sat front row beside actress Daisy Edgar-Jones. In a light-hearted moment, the two stars realised they were wearing similar looks, prompting fans to note their striking resemblance.
Fashion enthusiasts have praised Dakota’s ability to effortlessly blend casual style with high fashion, making her one of the standout attendees at this year’s event.
Rising Career Behind the Camera
In addition to turning heads on the fashion circuit, Dakota Johnson has been making headlines for her career moves. She recently stepped behind the camera for her directorial debut with the short film Loser Baby, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The film follows a group of friends led by Talia Bernstein and stars Ashley Madekwe, among others. Johnson has opened up about her growing passion for directing, sharing that the experience felt “incredibly natural” to her and left her eager to take on more projects in the future.
Having gained international fame as Anastasia Steele in Fifty Shades of Grey, Johnson has continuously evolved as an actress and filmmaker. Speaking about her directorial ambitions, she stated, “I have a lot of growth in that department and a lot to learn. I’m open to making more things, but I’m not sure what’s next. It’s exciting to explore new creative avenues.”
