Captured for her tv appearance on The Today Show on December 12, 2011, Scarlett Johansson [IMDb: Scarlett Johansson] perfectly encapsulates the bright, color-blocked energy of the early 2010s, contrasting the chill of the December season. Her choice is a vibrant, saturated royal blue shift dress, featuring a high neck and sleeveless cut that leans into a minimalist, slightly Mod-inspired silhouette. The fabric appears to be a structured weave, giving the simple shape a rich, tactile weight suitable for a major media event.
The visual impact is cleverly amplified by her styling choices, which are all about anchoring the bright hue. She layers the mini-dress over dark, opaque black tights—a necessary fashion choice for the winter in New York and a hallmark of the era’s celebrity event look. This foundation of dark hosiery extends seamlessly into her footwear: a pair of black suede open-toe booties, whose recognizable red sole instantly suggests the craftsmanship of Christian Louboutin. It’s the kind of high-low texture play that makes a talk show outfit feel grounded yet luxurious.
