Gwyneth Paltrow made a statement at the 2002 Oscars thanks to her gothic-inspired Alexander McQueen gown, which she has since passed down to her daughter, Apple.During a Thursday, June 15, Instagram Story Q&A, Paltrow, 50, was asked if she ever let her 19-year-old daughter try on any of her archival fashion pieces.The Shakespeare in Love actress simply replied by uploading a photo of Apple — whom she shares with ex-husband Chris Martin, alongside son Moses, 17 — wearing the now-iconic gown inside her closet.Paltrow first donned the ensemble at the March 2002 Academy Awards.

Despite rampant criticism of her desire to wear a sheer bodice to the awards ceremony, the Glee alum liked the look.“Everybody really hated this [dress], but I think it’s kind of dope.

I’m into it,” Paltrow recalled to Vogue in an April 2021 interview for their “Life in Looks” series. “I had a weird hangover about it for a while because people were really critical.”She continued: “I think at the time it was too goth, I think people thought it was too hard, so I think it sort of shocked people.

But I like it.”Paltrow, however, has since noticed one fatal flaw with her Oscars ensemble.“There were a few issues; I still love the dress itself but I should have worn a bra and I should have just had simple beachy hair and less makeup,” the Shallow Hal actress previously confessed during a March 2013 Q&A on her Goop blog. “Then, it would have worked as I wanted it to — a little bit of punk at the Oscars.”In order to view the video, please allow Manage CookiesPaltrow’s daughter has since become a fashionista in her own right, even making her Paris Fashion Week debut at the Chanel spring/summer 2023 runway show in January.
