Curvy girls are often advised to avoid horizontal stripes because they can exaggerate width and create an unflattering silhouette. But Jennifer Lopez defied this common fashion rule with confidence! At 46, the singer embraced horizontal stripes in a bold and bright Naeem Khan jumpsuit that hugged her curves in all the right places.

Rather than avoiding the daring pattern, Jennifer Lopez proved that stripes can enhance a figure rather than overwhelm it when styled correctly. Her bold choice in the vibrant Naeem Khan Spring 2016 jumpsuit shows that fashion rules are meant to be broken—especially when you have the confidence to pull it off like J.Lo.
In March 2016, she was spotted in this eye-catching piece as she made her way to film a live American Idol episode, turning heads with her fearless fashion statement.
The jumpsuit features horizontal stripes in an array of vibrant colors, including shades of orange, blue, pink, red, and gold
The sparkly sequins and the skintight fit highlighted and hugged J. Lo’s every curve. Thankfully, the bell bottoms provided breathing room and gave us peeks at Jennifer’s Casadei blade-heel platform pumps.

A Maxior wrap ring and Mattia Cielo ‘Rugiada’ hoop earrings studded with amethyst, tourmaline, and diamond stones completed the diva’s glammed-up look.

During a live episode of American Idol on March 17, Jennifer Lopez became emotional while giving a standing ovation to contestant La’Porsha Renae after her powerful rendition of “No More Drama” by Mary J. Blige.
She also praised Trent Harmon’s performance, sharing how moments like these are why she loves Idol and will miss the show.
“It’s even having this front seat watching the perfect song and the perfect singer sing it at that time. And it made me think, ‘Damn, I’ve been so lucky the five years I got to be on this show and watch things like that,’” Jennifer said. “And you sang that song so beautifully and I felt every single word of it. Thank you for giving me one of those moments.”

Jennifer Lopez boosted her height with Casadei Blade platform pumps, which were perfectly hidden beneath the bell-bottoms of her vibrant, striped jumpsuit
Jennifer Lopez is a big fan of Casadei shoes, especially the blade heel style. In July 2016, she styled her Casadei Blade pumps with a custom white La Perla ensemble during her emotional performance on the Today Show, where she honored the Orlando shooting victims.
One year earlier, Jennifer Lopez paired her tight, net-back white dress with nude Casadei Blade pumps while filming American Idol’s Hollywood Week.
