Joan Collins, famed for her role as the glamorous Alexis Colby on Dynasty, continues to embrace a life of luxury and style, despite her shift away from the iconic character. Recently, the former TV star was spotted with her husband, Percy Gibson, enjoying a date night in West Hollywood. Dressed in a chic black ensemble, Joan showcased her signature bold glamour, complete with a dramatic faux cat fur jacket. She completed the look with black kitten heels, a matching purse, and a statement necklace, while her dark hair cascaded in voluminous curls.
Joan’s outfit marked a shift from her past, especially in light of criticism from PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) regarding her past fashion choices. PETA had previously called out Joan in 2013 for wearing real fur, particularly in the 1980s play Legends!, where Joan and other stars were seen in fur costumes. In their article, PETA indirectly criticized Joan, referencing her participation in the original touring production of Legends! and noting how the new PETA-friendly revival would feature stars like Whoopi Goldberg wearing faux fur instead.
While Joan has made an effort to embrace faux furs in recent years, she’s found herself facing new controversy, this time over her attendance at a MAGA event. Earlier this week, Joan was spotted at a pre-inauguration celebration for then-President-elect Donald Trump. The event, which drew a crowd of right-wing supporters, included a picture shared by actor James Woods on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Many fans were taken aback by Joan’s closeness to Trump and his supporters, with some expressing disappointment over her involvement.
However, an insider revealed to The Daily Mail that Joan’s relationship with Trump should come as no surprise, as they have been close friends for decades. According to the source, “To Joan, Donald is not just a former president and soon-to-be MAGA president, but he is also one of her closest lifelong friends. She has run in his circle for 40 years and they have so much love for one another.”
