Kiss of the Spider Woman just hit theaters. Although critics praised Jennifer Lopez’s performance, the film unfortunately ranked among the lowest opening numbers in box-office history, grossing just under $1 million during its debut weekend.
But if there’s one thing about J.Lo, it’s that she never lets a setback slow her down. On the same day the movie was released, she was already back to work, filming her next project, The Last Mrs. Parrish. She looked unbothered, exuding quiet confidence with a sense of mystery in a red Dior outfit paired with dogtooth pattern Manolo Blahnik shoes.

The Last Mrs. Parrish follows a con-woman, Amber Patterson (Isabel May), who enters the lives of wealthy couple Daphne Parrish (Jennifer Lopez) and Jackson Parrish (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau). Amber befriends Daphne to get closer to her family and seduce her husband, only to discover that the glamorous life she envies is more complicated than she could have imagined.
On the set of the upcoming crime thriller movie, directed by Robert Zemeckis, J.Lo exuded pure power and glamour in a fiery red skirt suit that made her look every bit the lady boss. I loved how it seemed to reflect her character’s strength! Let’s take a closer look at her outfit.
Jennifer Lopez Radiates Power in a Fiery Red Dior Skirt Suit on Set
Jennifer Lopez was a sight to behold in her striking red Dior ensemble while filming The Last Mrs. Parrish in Uptown, Manhattan. Wearing a fitted crimson skirt suit that exuded refinement and power, she turned the street into her own runway.
The ensemble was nothing short of breathtaking. Her fitted Dior jacket, made in France from luxurious red virgin wool and silk grain de poudre, instantly stood out. The silhouette accentuated her figure, while the high collar and lack of lapels, inspired by the Dior archives, gave the ensemble a structured, regal feel. The contrasting black buttons along the front, flap pockets, and front darting gave the jacket a sense of sharp sophistication.
It was paired with a midi-length wrap skirt, a signature Dior silhouette that beautifully balanced structure with femininity. Crafted in Italy from rich red virgin wool-cotton-blend boucle, the skirt featured a straight-cut wrap design with a hook closure and belt loops that hinted at a classic, polished finish.

But in typical J.Lo fashion, she gave the ensemble her own twist. Rather than putting a belt through the loops of the skirt, she cinched her blazer at the waist with a black croc-embossed belt, creating a more defined silhouette. It added a sense of authority and luxury, transforming the look from traditional elegance into something bold and dramatic.
While Jennifer Lopez’s Manolo Blahnik pumps were described as featuring a “dogstooth” motif, the term actually refers to the same pattern more widely known as houndstooth — one of fashion’s most enduring textile designs.
The Story Behind Dogstooth and Houndstooth — Fashion’s Most Timeless Pattern
The jagged black-and-white check we recognize today has appeared under many names through fashion history — all describing the same duotone weave resembling a hound’s tooth. Depending on the scale or origin, it may be called houndstooth, dogstooth (or dogtooth), hound’s tooth check, puppytooth for smaller versions, shepherd’s check in older tailoring references, or pied-de-poule (French for “chicken foot”).
Beloved by both couture houses and streetwear designers, the pattern continues to inspire new interpretations — from classic wool coats to bold accessories and statement pumps like J.Lo’s Manolos.

Old Hollywood Glam: Jennifer Lopez’s Vintage-Inspired Accessories
J.Lo kept her accessories cohesive, enhancing the look’s commanding tone. She wore black gloves, giving her an air of retro sophistication, as if she had just stepped out of a 1950s noir film. I thought this addition perfectly captured her enigmatic role as Daphne Parrish.
She then carried a $1,590 black leather Amiri East West clutch, made in Poland from croc-embossed calfskin leather. It was understated yet luxurious, featuring a top magnetic clasp closure, a top handle, and gold logo detailing.
J.Lo also wore a wide-brimmed black hat, casting soft shadows that added to her mysterious Old Hollywood allure. A pair of oversized black Carolina Herrera sunglasses gave the outfit a cinematic flair, making her appear as if she were walking straight out of a suspense thriller. For subtle yet radiant touches, Lopez wore statement diamond-and-pearl earrings and a crystal-encrusted angel-wing brooch pinned to her left chest.

Manolo Blahnik Dogstooth Pumps Complete J.Lo’s Lady-Boss Look
While I love every piece of the look, my eyes were instantly drawn to her shoes. I thought they were the perfect finishing touch that tied everything together.
She wore Manolo Blahnik’s “Camparinew” pumps, made in Italy from black wool with a black-and-red dogstooth pattern. Finished with smooth nappa leather trims, the design struck a flawless balance between classic charm and contemporary edge.
The shoes had sleek pointed toes, a front strap with a button closure, and slender 4-inch stiletto heels that added just the right height and polish to the look.

Whether she’s channeling Old Hollywood glamour or laid-back luxury, her fashion choices always tell a story — one that’s unapologetically bold, feminine, and timeless.
