Keke Palmer stuns in Jaime Lee Curtis’ vintage 1986 velvet gown at 2025 SAG Awards

Keke Palmer made heads turn at the 2025 SAG Awards not just for her jaw-dropping looks but because her ensemble was previously worn by another Hollywood diva.

On Sunday, the 31-year-old actress dazzled in an glamorous archival strapless, velvet Chanel gown and long matching gloves that Jamie Lee Curtis once modeled.

During the show, the actress’ stylist Molly Dickson took to her Instagram Story to share a photo of the 66-year-old star wearing the striking ensemble nearly forty years ago.

The Freaky Friday actress wore the elegant gown adorned with a stunning gold chest piece accent at the First Annual American Cinematheque Award Salute to Eddie Murphy on February 28, 1986. 

Vintage couture resale boutique Vintage Martini Consignment — which is based in Dallas, Texas — revealed on their Instagram back in late December that they had sold the dress.

The boutique shared a carousel of snaps of the look which was revealed to me made in France and that it is an EU size 40, which is roughly a US size 8.

‘The most spectacular Chanel Fall 1985 RTW embellished velvet gown, complete with the intricately beaded CC, interior boning, and a front pocket,’ the reseller described the gown.

The True Jackson VP alum modernized the Old Hollywood style gown with a striking fiery bob and $895 leaf-shaped earrings by Brilliant Earth x Jane Goodall.

She opted for a light glam makeup look comprised of a bold red lip and classic winged eyeliner while posing up a storm at the star studded bash.

Palmer acted as a presenter at the awards ceremony, but prior to showtime she revealed that the gig was nerve-racking.

She said on the red carpet, ‘Presenting is a little spooky, but I’m doing it with Colman Domingo. He’s a friend.’

The annual ceremony, hosted by Nobody Wants This star Kristen Bell, was streamed live on Netflix for the second year in a row starting.

It was presented by the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and is the ‘only televised awards ceremony to exclusively honor actors.’

During the hours-long ceremony, 13 awards were handed for ‘outstanding performances’ in both film and TV that were decided on by SAG-AFTRA’s 130,000+ members.

According to the official website, the SAG Awards have ‘the largest voting body on the awards circuit.’

Pamela Anderson, Demi Moore, Zoe Saldana and Timothée Chalamet are just some of the A-list stars who snagged nominations at this year’s ceremony.

Unlike prior years, the official SAG Awards nomination ceremony was canceled for 2025 in wake of the devastating Los Angeles wildfires that broke out in January.

Instead, SAG-AFTRA shared the nominations online
