In 2009, Jennifer Lopez celebrated her milestone 40th birthday wrapped in the arms of her then-husband, Marc Anthony, and while wearing a spectacular gown straight from the Roberto Cavalli Menswear Spring/Summer 2009 collection.
Lopez rang in her fourth decade on several occasions, but it was this dreamy floor-skimming, halter-style, archival piece that took the (birthday) cake. The goddess Cavalli look, with its gorgeous silk chiffon and Cuban link design, draped the birthday queen to perfection – the sexiness factor was off the charts.

While we can only assume that her exact dress is tucked safely in fashion history, this Roberto Cavalli gown from the same 2009 collection has resurfaced – in unworn condition, and ready to wear – and available for purchase on eBay. It’s a rare chance to own an archival look that channels pure pop culture magic.
