Jennifer Aniston Slays in Chic Little Black Dress and Nails the Latest Lob Hairstyle at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards

The star of ‘The Morning Show’ took home the Drama TV Star of the Year award at the prestigious event.

At the 2024 People’s Choice Awards, Jennifer Aniston wowed everyone with her timeless fashion choice. Despite skipping the red carpet, the 55-year-old actress stole the spotlight when she appeared on stage in a beautiful strapless black gown to present Adam Sandler with the People’s Icon Award. This was a special moment as it had been four years since Aniston received the same prestigious honor in 2019. Later in the evening, Aniston also took home the award for drama TV star of the year for her role on The Morning Show.

Aniston’s outfit exuded sophistication with its elegant simplicity. The asymmetrical hemline that grazed above the knee and the delicate side pleats added a touch of refinement to her look. She accessorized with a subtle necklace and ankle-strap heels, staying true to her iconic style.

Aniston showed off a stylish lob that gently touched her shoulders and was a bit shorter than the ’90s-inspired hair she rocked at the Golden Globes earlier this year. Following the hype over her Golden Globes hairstyle, Aniston’s close hairstylist and pal, Chris McMillan, took to Instagram to reveal that he wanted to achieve a “sexy, natural, and easygoing” look with “hidden layers” throughout.
