At the Venice Film Festival, Julia Roberts and Amanda Seyfried turned heads in the same outfit: an oversized blazer, striped shirt, and straight-leg denim. Styled by Elizabeth Stewart, the duo’s coordinated look wasn’t accidental — Seyfried even commented on Roberts’ outfit post, “Please let me wear the same outfit,” before stepping out in the exact ensemble two days later.
Roberts styled hers with pointed-toe pumps for a sleek finish, while Seyfried gave the look a relaxed twist with open sandals and an undone shirt. Both versions demonstrate the versatility of this fall uniform.
This look works because it relies on three seasonless essentials: the oversized blazer, the striped button-down, and dark denim. Together, they create a capsule wardrobe combination that can be worn on repeat all season long. It’s the kind of outfit that works anywhere — a film festival photocall, an office day, or a casual evening out. Swap heels for loafers or boots, tuck in the shirt or leave it undone — the versatility is what makes it the ultimate fall style hack.
Julia and Amanda’s matching look may be the season’s highlight, but it’s part of a larger shift toward simple outfit equations that balance comfort and polish. One of the most popular is the slip dress layered with knitwear. Adding an oversized cardigan or chunky sweater instantly makes the summer staple fall-ready, especially when paired with boots for day-to-night wear.
For those who like tailoring with a twist, tailored shorts with oversized blazers are a surprising fall hero. Worn with tights or knee-high boots, they add dimension to seasonal layering while keeping the look modern and playful.
And of course, this fall is all about statement outerwear. From leather bombers to bold-colored trench coats, outerwear takes center stage while the rest of the outfit remains minimal — think jeans, a simple top, and the kind of coat that makes an entrance.
By sharing a stylist and a standout outfit, Julia Roberts and Amanda Seyfried reminded us that sometimes the best looks are the most repeatable. Their blazer-and-denim combo is just one example of how fall style thrives on formulas: easy-to-assemble pieces you can remix again and again.
