The beautiful Julia Louis-Dreyfus graced the red carpet premiere of ‘Enough Said’ in New York looking every bit as graceful in a tastefully made black Emilio Pucci dress a few days ago.

The mother-of-two plays a single mom who sends her daughter off to college, deciding to date again as a result of her loneliness. Julia shares that she related to her character effortlessly, having sent her first-born Henry to college just a few years ago. Julia also mentioned the late James Gandolfini, who starred alongside her in the movie, sharing that “Jim’s character is a thoughtful depiction of an incredibly good, earnest, lonely, well-meaning man and kind, kind, kind. It’s very close to who Jim was.”

The 52-year-old actress looked absolutely stunning in a mid-length Emilio Pucci dress, as she cheerfully greeted the press on the red carpet. Julie completed her look with a pair of Stella McCartney reptile pointed-toe heels, a Tod’s clutch, and Lorraine Schwartz earrings. Her hair was parted in the middle and styled into a classic updo, showing off her natural-looking makeup.

Despite having some fitting risks because of the tricky mesh-and-solid-fabric tieback, the dress fit Julia like a glove. The cutouts stayed in place, and the neckline didn’t fall apart. We love the placement of the mesh inset across the skirt, giving an illusion of slimmer hips. The slit was the perfect length — just enough to break the solidity of the black garment without showing too much skin. The asymmetrical hem also adds to the edge of an otherwise simple LBD.

Here’s the Emilio Pucci classic dress:
