Whether hitting the red carpet in a little lingerie-inspired slip or dressing up a long ivory robe for an event, Dakota Johnson has long loved a good pajama dressing moment. And on Thursday night, she gave her go-to style another spin—this time with a breezy two-piece set that could seriously take her from a night out to a night in.

Courtesy of Italian label Loretta Caponi, the ensemble was composed of a long-sleeve midi dress and relaxed trousers, each crafted from black satin, adorned with delicate gold floral embroidery, and trimmed with scalloped lace. The loose dress, with its choker collar, deep V neckline and drop shoulders, was secured in the front by a line of buttons—which Johnson left undone, wearing the piece as a robe. The coordinating trousers were defined by a pleated waist and fluid silhouette.
Underneath, the Fifty Shades of Grey actor embraced another one of her favorite trends—naked dressing—with a sheer black lace cami that was embroidered with a floral design of its own. And, for a third pop of pattern, she grabbed a small leopard-print Valentino bag.
Johnson wore the look to Thursday night’s Los Angeles screening of Flesh Impact, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s forthcoming short film that imagines what Marilyn Monroe’s life might have been like had she lived to be 100 years old. For the project, Johnson transformed into Monroe at the height of her fame, blonde hair and all. It premiered at Venice Film Festival in September, though a theatrical or streaming release date has not yet been announced.
