Back in 2021, Paltrow spoke to Vogue in her Life in Looks instalment, where she shed light on the costuming of Great Expectations and shared more details on what became one of cinema’s most iconic looks.
“So, this is Great Expectations. This was a Donna Karan outfit. All of my clothes in that movie were Donna Karan, pretty much.”

Paltrow also remembered meeting the costume designer and being told that “everything in the movie was green. Every set, every fabric, every costume. And I thought she was kidding.”
The Goop founder also recalled her own hand in the costume. “I had remembered that Donna had done a very green collection and it just so happened that it was all kind of perfect, and perfectly nineties, and elegant, and perfect for this character. It’s so funny that this look got so much, and continues to get so much traction,” she said, adding that the “very sexy” and “career highlight” scene where she kissed Ethan Hawke probably also had something to do with the green set becoming so memorable.
