Mandy Moore Just Channeled Her Inner Red Dress Emoji in This Nearly $3K Gown

Of all the emojis, there’s none quite so fashionable as the dancing red lady (though the Lisa Frank emojis certainly gives her a run for her money) and This Is Us star Mandy Moore is here to prove it.

The newly engaged starlet was seen walking the red carpet at the SAG-AFTRA Foundation Patron of the Artists Awards in Beverly Hills while looking like the spitting image of the famous tech icon in a gorgeous tiered Johanna Ortiz crimson floral-print maxi gown ($2,950) that had her kicking up her heels — literally.

“Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery?” she joked, adding in a few of the 💃 emojis of her own for emphasis. “But seriously, this is the dreamiest dress.”

She’s not the first star to pay homage to the virtual character: Hilary Duff was spotted in a similar style back in June with a fire-engine red tier-sleeved frock while on the set of Younger, and Jenna Dewan Tatum also pulled off her classic pose in a pretty emoji-esque getup all her own.
