LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Jennifer Lopez wowed in a stunning revenge dress during her first red-carpet appearance following her divorce filing from Ben Affleck.

Lopez attended the TIFF premiere of her latest film, 'Unstoppable,' which was produced by Affleck and Matt Damon's Artists Equity. While Damon was present at the biopic's premiere, Affleck, currently in the midst of his divorce from Lopez, chose to skip the event.

However, rumors suggest that Affleck did notice the dress, but his reaction didn’t quite produce the effect Lopez might have hoped for.

As the 55-year-old 'Jenny From The Block' singer graced the TIFF red carpet, she chose a dazzling silver Tamara Ralph gown featuring side slits from top to bottom. The dress was secured with black velvet ties, highlighting her toned physique.

As the “Maid in Manhattan” star made her striking appearance, fans swiftly dubbed it a “revenge dress.”

However, a source recently told NewsNation that Affleck was reportedly unfazed by the daring ensemble.

A source shared with the outlet, per Perez Hilton, “(Ben) doesn’t care. He’s so happy to be free right now.”

The source added passionately, “She could wear all the revenge dresses in the world – hell, she could show up to the red carpet n***d – and he would not blink twice.” 

While that may seem far-fetched, the dress has certainly won a lot of fans online.

However, Lopez revealed that there was a time she was reconsidering pulling off the attire.

Referencing her headline-maker look, Lopez admitted to People on the red carpet, “There was a discussion about whether I should or shouldn’t. And I was like, f**k it.” Nevertheless, she admitted she “felt good” pulling off the dress.

The ‘Shotgun Wedding’ star completed her look with a metallic Judith Leiber clutch, Hassanzadeh jewelry and Dolce & Gabbana platform heels.

Jennifer Lopez’s ‘revenge dress’ had one hidden meaning

While the actress made a statement with her post-separation look, fans also found that the actress’s “commitment” tattoo was curiously missing.

Celebrating their first Valentine’s Day as a married couple, Affleck and Lopez got matching tattoos of each other’s names.

Lopez had an infinity symbol tattooed on her left ribcage, with their names “Jennifer” and “Ben” written on either side.

However, sharp-eyed fans noticed that the tattoo was absent during her red carpet-appearance. It remains unclear whether Lopez had the tattoo removed or if it was simply covered up with makeup.
