In June 2023, Jennifer Lopez had a sporty glam moment in a wetsuit-inspired gown as she showed her support for her husband, Ben Affleck, at the premiere of The Flash.
Despite all the controversies surrounding Ezra Miller, who stars in the titular role, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck showcased their star power at the event.

J.Lo and Ben Affleck Continue Their Red Carpet Reign
The couple had already made a habit of supporting each other’s projects on the red carpet, stepping out together at the Los Angeles premieres of Air and The Mother, where their coordinated appearances regularly blended Hollywood polish with affectionate, camera-ready chemistry.
This time, Jennifer Lopez’s plunging gown took center stage. After all, Lopez birthed Google Images with her show-stopping Versace dress at the 2000 Grammy Awards.
But instead of a classic maximalist bombshell moment, she served up chic minimalism in a Gucci Resort 2024 look featuring a sculpted black sleeveless bodice that resembled half a wetsuit.
It featured a stiff collar and a zipper fastened down her chest for a plunging neckline. But that’s not all – the gown also featured a peach-colored chiffon skirt with a dramatic, flowing train, perfect for a movie-star moment.

Soft Glam Beauty: Sleek Hair, Peachy Lips, and Diamond Sparkle
As for her beauty look, “The Mother” star kept it simple with a peach lip and her signature bronze glow. Her hair was parted in the middle and swept up in a sleek ponytail to show off her stunning face and a pair of diamond drop earrings.
Finally, the Shotgun Wedding actress carried a Kurt Geiger clutch and completed her look with Gucci Angel white platform heels.
Although Jennifer Lopez’s footwear was mostly hidden beneath the flowing chiffon of her Gucci gown at The Flash premiere, she added height and elegance with Gucci’s iconic shoes. Standing at 5 feet 4 ½ inches (163.8 cm), Lopez often relies on these sky-high heels to elongate her silhouette, especially on red carpets where glamour reigns supreme.

Ben Affleck’s Sleek All-Black Look Matches J.Lo’s High-Fashion Moment
For a cohesive couple look, Ben Affleck stepped out in an all-black ensemble consisting of a tailored suit, a matching black undershirt, and polished dress shoes.

Jennifer Lopez on Ben Affleck’s Style Opinions and Red Carpet Picks
During a recent guest stint on Live with Kelly and Mark, the iconic actress revealed that she often asks her husband for fashion advice.
“He doesn’t come to the fittings or anything like that,” the Hustlers star shared. “But, if I’m getting dressed and we’re going to a red carpet or some big event, I’m like, ‘What do you think? This one or this one? Do you like this or do you like this?’ Stuff like that.”

She playfully added, “He’ll joke with me sometimes and say, ‘Where’s the rest of the shirt?’ And I’m like, ‘No, this one doesn’t have anything else.’”
Well, it looks like Ben Affleck approved of Jennifer Lopez’s two-tone Gucci gown at The Flash premiere. And we do, too.
The Gucci “Angel” heels became one of Alessandro Michele’s most recognizable platform designs, combining towering proportions with the retro-glam styling that defined Gucci’s late-2010s red carpet era.
Built with thick platforms, slim stiletto heels, and strappy silhouettes, the shoes regularly appeared beneath sweeping gowns, embellished minis, and vintage-inspired tailoring at premieres and fashion events.
Gucci’s “Angel” Platforms Still Define Maximalist Red Carpet Glamour
Jennifer Lopez’s flowing Gucci premiere look captured why the “Angel” platforms became such a celebrity favorite.
Their exaggerated height and vintage-inspired shape added drama without overwhelming the outfit, creating the elongated silhouette that stars like Salma Hayek, Chloë Grace Moretz, and Drew Barrymore often leaned into during Michele’s maximalist Gucci era.
