Emma Stone created a buzz at Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary celebration with her unconventional and playful red carpet look. The Oscar-winning actress donned a custom Louis Vuitton gown featuring oversized pockets filled with medium-sized portions of popcorn. The floor-length red halterneck dress, paired with matching red heels and a candy-striped popcorn bucket, combined high fashion with humor. As she walked the event, stray popcorn fell from her pockets, adding to the whimsical nature of her outfit.
This bold choice resonated with fans and critics alike, blending comedy with couture in a way rarely seen on the red carpet. Stone’s outfit also highlighted the ongoing conversation about functionality in women’s fashion, particularly the historical and modern significance of pockets in clothing. Her look was both a nod to practicality and a celebration of sartorial irreverence.
Stone attended the event alongside her husband, Dave McCary, a former SNL writer. The couple has a history with the show, having first met on its set in 2016. The evening was part of a star-studded celebration honoring five decades of SNL, featuring appearances by iconic cast members and celebrities.
