Despite what Mandy Moore‘s continuous throwback posts on Instagram might lead you to believe, the former pop star has been simultaneously moving forward in her red carpet style.

Lately, Mandy has been surprising us with her red carpet looks, all thanks to her stylists and her growing confidence due to the success of her show, “This Is Us.”

The actress tried yet another make-or-break look at Marie Claire’s Fresh Faces event in Hollywood.

Mandy took a fully sequined purple dress from designer Jeffrey Dodd’s Fall 2017 collection, which was completely hand-embroidered.

The original styling of the Jeffrey Dodd dress included a leather waist belt, but Mandy decided to cinch hers by wearing the skirt a bit higher.

Honestly, this particular dress is a bit hard to pull off. The color is too solid, so it runs the risk of being bland and also? It’s almost impossible to wear head-to-toe purple without looking like Barney.

Fortunately, Mandy managed to pull this look off.
