Anne Hathaway knows that a denim jacket is THE thing to wear on an October evening, and it goes with her latest gown surprisingly well.
The Oscar winner stepped out in New York City for a screening of her latest flick, Rebecca Miller’s She Came to Me, in a gorgeous pink-grapefruit-colored dress, covered in sequins with a slit on the side. Mermaidcore, but make it 𝓈ℯ𝓍y. It’s a strapless number that doesn’t offer much by way of insulation, so after the sun went down, Hathaway naturally needed something to cover her shoulders. Enter the cropped jean jacket.

Hathaway and her stylist Erin Walsh paired the dress, from fashion house The Attico, with a Versace handbag, Bulgari jewels, and silvery stilettos I can imagine on Cinderella.
No details yet on the designer of her jacket, but it’s perfectly cropped to show off maximum dress while still covering Hathaway’s exposed skin.

This is the second time in two days that Hathaway’s added a pop of denim to an otherwise formal outfit. Appearing on Good Morning America, she wore a black suit that was jeans in the middle. It’s hard to explain; just take a look here.
We could see ourselves throwing a jean jacket over a number of the Devil Wears Prada star’s recent looks, like that diamond-patterned mint green gown (stun me, gag me) or the floor-length shimmering gold piece that made her look less like an actor and more like a statuette.
Obviously you need one now, so check out our round-up of the best denim jackets, then peruse the history of the garment in Hollywood and beyond. From working class to country rock, and now to fancy fashion. It really is such a versatile garment, and they make great heirlooms. I get compliments on the one I stole from my mom all the time.
