Jennifer Lopez received a standing ovation as she hit the catwalk in a recreation of her iconic Grammys green leaf plunging dress - twenty years since the dress made her a global fashion icon.

The singer’s throwback look was enthusiastically welcomed by fashion lovers as she closed the Versace Spring/Summer 2020 presentation during Milan Fashion Week.

The 50-year-old showed off her incredible physique in the dress that turned her into an international beauty following the 2000 Grammy Awards.

The dress boasts a deep plunging neckline, bare back and a fabric train measuring several feet in length.

The sleeveless and backless sheer dress worn in Milan was an altered version of JLo’s original look and was even more revealing than the original version.

Ensuring she captured every essential detail of that Grammy’s look, the star styled her blonde locks into the exact same hairstyle of a high curly ponytail, knocking decades off her age.

The dress was included in the line-up as Versace celebrated two decades since the iconic look first made headlines.

Halfway through her walk, the singer was joined by Donatella Versace.

“I was like what the hell is going on? I had no idea it was about this dress.”

The fashion industry had been buzzing for weeks ahead of the Versace show in Milan that the dress may make another appearance after invitations to the catwalk were printed with the same iconic design.
