Sarah Paulson's Gothic Blazer Dress Stuns on Broadway

Sarah Paulson delivered a dose of gothic glamour to Broadway on March 23, stepping out in a distinctive black blazer dress. The outfit featured '80s-inspired exaggerated padded shoulders and was cinched with a black cardigan tied around her chest, creating a bold contrast with a sheer black lace maxiskirt underlay.

This unique ensemble, seen at the opening night of 'Giant' at the Music Box Theatre, showcased floral-embroidered mesh fabric and was complemented by pointy-toed black stilettos and a black patent leather clutch. Paulson's signature sleek bob and a bright red lipstick added a pop of color to the monochromatic look.

Earlier this year, at the 2026 Vanity Fair Oscars after-party, Paulson presented a different retro aesthetic. She opted for a head-to-toe cream outfit that included a voluminous white tulle tutu skirt paired with a structural knit cardigan and a white satin cummerbund. This look was accessorized with cream satin stilettos and edgy beauty choices like dark burgundy lipstick.
