Apple Martin Tried on Gwyneth Paltrow’s 2002 Oscar Gown

• Apple Martin was the spitting image of mom Gwyneth Paltrow when she tried on the star’s old gown.
• Paltrow revealed on Instagram that the 19-year-old has access to her entire wardrobe. 
• The Goop founder shared a picture of Martin in an infamous Alexander McQueen gown to her account. 

Apple Martin was the spitting image of her mom Gwyneth Paltrow when she posed in a gown the Goop founder wore to the 2002 Oscars. 

Paltrow did a Q&A with her Instagram followers on Thursday, and one of the questions she received, per InStyle, was: “does apple ever wear any of ur fashion archives?” 

The “Shakespeare in Love” star reportedly answered with a photo of the 19-year-old posing in an Alexander McQueen frock, seemingly from Paltrow’s closet. The dress featured a sheer gray mesh bodice with lace-up detailing on the front and a voluminous long black skirt. 

As People reported, Paltrow’s outfit choice at the 2002 awards show led to some criticism, primarily due to the garment’s “goth” aesthetic. 

The Goop founder weighed in on her decision in a 2013 Q&A for the lifestyle website, admitting that she would have styled the gown differently in retrospect. 

“There were a few issues; I still love the dress itself but I should have worn a bra and I should have just had simple beachy hair and less makeup. Then, it would have worked as I wanted it to — a little bit of punk at the Oscars,” Paltrow said on Goop’s website, according to Today. 

Paltrow shares two children with ex-husband Chris Martin: 19-year-old Apple, and 17-year-old Moses. Paltrow and the Coldplay singer divorced in 2016 after 13 years of marriage.
