Leslie Jones dazzles in bright-red, off-the-shoulder gown at Ghostbusters Premiere

 

Leslie Jones turned heads and got her Cinderella moment at the premiere of Ghostbusters Saturday, thanks to a certain designer who heeded her call. The actress and comedienne, who plays her biggest role yet in the rebooted film, wowed in a bright red, off-the-shoulder Christian Siriano gown with a thigh-high slit, paired with sparkling Vince Camuto stiletto sandals and a matching chunky DanniJo necklace, Chris Aire earrings and a Judith Leiber clutch. 

Jones, who is also known best for her no holds barred stand-up comedy rather than her fashion style, had on June 28 tweeted, It's so funny how there are no designers wanting to help me with a premiere dress for movie. Hmmm that will change and I remember everything. Her post sparked mixed reactions and reignited discussion about high fashion body standards and the pressure women in Hollywood face to conform to them. And there was one man who immediately took to Twitter to offer help: Designer and Project Runway alum Siriano. He and Jones met up days later to consult on the perfect outfit for the Ghostbusters premiere in Los Angeles.

Jones posed on the green carpet alone and with co-stars Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy and Kate McKinnon.
