Jennifer Lawrence Gives a Masterclass in Summer Layering in a Rare Pair of Jeans

Jennifer Lawrence rarely wears jeans but when she does, they’re heat-wave approved.

On July 10, the 34-year-old actor was photographed giving a masterclass in summer layering while on a dinner date with husband Cooke Maroney in New York City. Lawrence started with the basics, pairing a crisp white tee-shirt with relaxed baggy jeans and open-toed sandals.

While the combination has become somewhat of a cool girl summer uniform in 2025, Lawrence added some personality and structure with a colorfully embroidered Qipao-style vest in black, keeping the top few knotted buttons open to reveal layers of dainty gold jewelry.

Pankou knots can be found on many traditional Chinese garments, which have clearly influenced Lawrence’s Summer 2025 wardrobe. Just a few days ago, she wore a flowing silk blouse with similar detailing with matching pants and a pair of The Row’s leather-trimmed sock mesh flats in a neutral beige shade.

Obviously, Jennifer Lawrence is not concerned about her silk or denim pants dragging on the New York City sidewalks, which is part of what makes her every-day style appear so effortless. When it comes to her most recent look, Lawrence countered the structure and intricate detailing of her vest with relaxed fit and styling everywhere else, especially her loose-fitting jeans, which hung low and draped over her toes, obscuring whatever sandals she was wearing beneath them.

She also kept her undershirt un-tucked from her baggy denim, topping everything off with a casual ponytail and well-loved Fendi Selleria Doctor’s bag, which added another slouchy element to the look. All this adds up to a layered summer ensemble that doesn’t make me sweat just looking at it.
