A surprisingly rare moment unfolded at New York Fashion Week when Julia Roberts stepped onto the red carpet alongside her niece, Emma Roberts. The pair attended the Veuve Clicquot x Simon Porte Jacquemus celebration at the Central Park Boathouse, instantly becoming the center of attention—not just because of their star power, but because of how remarkably alike they looked.
Their appearance was especially noteworthy, as it was the first time in 13 years that the two actresses posed together publicly. The last time they shared a red carpet was back in 2012 at the premiere of The Incredible Burt Wonderstone. For this stylish reunion, both chose sleek all-black ensembles and nearly matching hairstyles, leaving many fans momentarily confused—were they relatives or glamorous twins?
Julia wore an oversized blazer paired with tailored trousers, while Emma chose a delicate chiffon slip dress with thin straps. What really caught people’s attention, though, was their matching hair color. Both flaunted gorgeous red tones: Julia’s in loose waves with a center part, and Emma’s pulled back into a simple low ponytail. Emma’s fiery shade is still new—she only unveiled the look a few months earlier.
The American Horror Story actress first debuted her red hair in February, and it has been a hot topic among beauty lovers ever since.
Lately, Julia has also been appearing more frequently at major events, including the star-studded Venice premiere of After the Hunt this summer.
And of course, talent runs deep in the Roberts family. Julia’s brother, Eric Roberts, is a well-known actor himself, and his daughter—Emma’s cousin—has also carved out a place in the entertainment world.
Clearly, star quality is in their DNA ✨😊
