Selena Gomez put a bold spin on a minimalist outfit while attending the Time 100 Summit on Wednesday in New York.
The “Only Murders in the Building” star opted for a sleeveless Brandon Maxwell maxi dress with a patent leather corseted bodice. Gomez accessorized with peep-toe pumps from Black Suede Studio and Stephanie Gottlieb jewelry, completing her look with a Ducie London double-breasted coat, Linda Farrow cat-eye sunglasses and a Completedworks clutch.

Gomez was assisted by her stylist of nearly a year, Erin Walsh, whose other high-profile clients include Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba and Alison Brie.
The Rare Beauty founder wore her dark tresses in a long bob with auburn highlights, while her makeup consisted of coral blush and a glossy lip.
At the Time 100 Summit, Gomez discussed her makeup brand amid reports that the company was considering an IPO. “I really wanted to create fun makeup for people,” Gomez said. “Personally, I thought there are very unrealistic standards in the cosmetics world, and it makes me a little sad for my generation and anyone else to look at something that has probably been photoshopped and made pretty. I just wanted to break this down. I don’t believe in having to look a certain way.

“I wanted you to feel good when you used my products,” she continued. “All of our products have names based on uplifting things.…We try to be very conscious of naming products as reminders of joy or just to find ourselves.” »
The actress and entrepreneur also opened up about her mental health struggles. Gomez has previously opened up about her bipolar depression diagnosis.
“It was actually a little liberating once I was able to get it out because for years I was so confused and my emotions were so intense,” Gomez explained. “And it was very confusing, and then I went into psychosis, and all these confusing things were happening. And once I finally found the answer, it wasn’t, “Oh, I have this problem.” It actually made me feel better to know and understand what was going on in my mind. And I actually found it less scary.
