We Forgot How Good Jennifer Garner's Red Carpet Style Is — Until We Saw These Dresses

The world seemed to stop when Jennifer Garner arrived on the 2018 Oscars red carpet in this rich blue Atelier Versace number. She instantly made our best dressed list, and not just because her color choice was bold but because she carried herself with confidence and looked superbly graceful. "Does she always appear so elegant at events?" we wondered. The answer is yes.

If you backtrack through Jennifer's style history, you'll find that even when she's in a neutral shade, such as black or champagne, Jennifer slips a silk scarf around her shoulders or opts for a delicate bag instead of something fierce. Her expression is always soft, but with a toned body like hers, she strikes a sexy tone when she's in the mood for something formfitting. Ahead, catch a glimpse of some of her finest fashion moments.
