To promote her new movie, Verity, Dakota Johnson took on hosting duties on Saturday Night Live on October 3. The actress was even joined by her friend Taylor Swift, who surprised fans in a Simkhai plaid mini dress.
As Johnson was hosting SNL just one day before her 37th birthday, she appeared to be getting into party mode with her outfit choices. Firstly, during her SNL monologue, the Fifty Shades of Grey star—who is styled by Kate Young—wore a vintage Versace mini dress made from flame red latex.
The skintight look hailed from the fashion house’s Fall 2013 collection, per @dakotajohnsonscloset. The Materialists star wore a pair of Giuseppe Zanotti’s Intriigo Mule 90 in Red Patent Leather, perfectly complementing her latex dress.

After SNL, Johnson was photographed arriving at the after-party wearing another vintage piece—an embroidered black robe dress from Dries Van Noten’s Fall 2016 collection.
