Valentino gown. Kenneth Jay Lane x Brandon Maxwell ring. Wolford tights. Wandler sandals. Carter Smith/Copious Managementhas delivered in her 38-year career, there’s a brief one from 2015 that many women — especially women in Hollywood — remember as a standout. It’s a five-minute sketch onthat mocks the notion that actresses instantly lose all attractiveness once they reach a certain age.
Five years later, as Louis-Dreyfus, 59, sips coffee in a beachside Santa Monica restaurant, she doesn’t mince words about her actual state of desirability. “I feel very fuckable!” she says. Then she laughs and admits that she was unexpectedly plagued with doubts while shooting the scene. “All of a sudden I thought, ‘Wait a minute, why is this funny?’” Louis-Dreyfus recalls. But she recovered and ended up improvising some of the skit’s best lines.
That much was evident to anyone who saw how Louis-Dreyfus reacted to her cancer diagnosis in 2017. Although receiving the news was “so fundamentally terrifying,” she didn’t fully grasp how difficult chemotherapy would be and figured it would just require some tweaks to the schedule ofwhich was about to start production on its final season. “I called Dave Mandel, who was our showrunner,” she recalls.
Although comedians aren’t known as the world’s most stylish bunch , over the years she’s been an elegant and increasingly enthusiastic adopter of looks from marquee designers such as Narciso Rodriguez and. “I do love fashion,” she says. Pointing to the high-waist Helmut Lang army fatigues and Blundstone boots she’s wearing today, she adds, “Clearly, I also like to be comfortable.
“Maybe I come off as cavalier about things. But I’ve really worked hard.” She pauses again, as if setting up a joke. She’s smiling, but the punch line doesn’t come. Photography: Carter Smith.
