Temperatures in London on Tuesday were between 28 and 38 degrees Fahrenheit. U.K. newspaper the _Independent_ said Lawrence’s dress [shows](http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/fashion/jennifer-lawrence-dress-red-sparrow-photos-london-sexism-hollywood-timesup-a8221006.html) that “sexism in Hollywood still persists,” while Jezebel [said Lawrence looked](https://jezebel.com/please-give-jennifer-lawrence-a-dang-coat-1823164368) “undeniably great,” but suggested one of her male co-stars give her a “dang coat.” > [](https://twitter.com/helenlewis/status/965932704310185985) > [](https://twitter.com/helenlewis/status/965933013635825665) But in a Facebook post on Wednesday, Lawrence said the controversy was overblown and offensive. “That Versace dress was fabulous, you think I’m going to cover that gorgeous dress up with a coat and a scarf? I was outside for 5 minutes. I would have stood in the snow for that dress because I love fashion and that was my choice,” Lawrence wrote. “This is sexist, this is ridiculous, this is not feminism… Everything you see me wear is my choice. And if I want to be cold THATS MY CHOICE TOO!” In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Lewis responded, writing: “I disagree with the idea that “anything a woman chooses to do” = feminism. Also, I felt like the whole “Jeremy Irons in chaps business” was a clue I don’t think this is the biggest issue facing the world…” > [](https://twitter.com/helenlewis/status/966327266212016128) > [](https://twitter.com/helenlewis/status/966328181987954689) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5168389/jennifer-lawrence-versace-dress/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5168389/jennifer-lawrence-versace-dress/"},"headline":"Jennifer Lawrence Doesn't Care If People Think She Looks Cold in That Dress: 'This Is Ridiculous, This is Not Feminism'","datePublished":"2018-02-21T16:41:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-23T19:22:38.829Z","description":"\"You think I'm going to cover that gorgeous dress up with a coat and a scarf?\"","url":"https://time.com/5168389/jennifer-lawrence-versace-dress/","keywords":["Hollywood","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltae39c56d9b526191/698928648fd2ee951e35ac7c/jennifer-lawrence-dress.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Cooney","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-cooney/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltae39c56d9b526191/698928648fd2ee951e35ac7c/jennifer-lawrence-dress.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"\"Red Sparrow\" - Photocall","caption":"\"Red Sparrow\" - Photocall","creditText":"David M.
