Jennifer Garner has revealed what really happened to Jenna Rink's iconic dress from 13 Going On 30 after it disappeared years after the movie was released.
The Grammy-nominee, 54, is set to star in Sky's new drama series, The Five Star Weekend, alongside Gemma Chan, Chloë Sevigny, Regina Hall, and D’Arcy Carden, following food blogger Hollis Shaw as she brings together friends from all areas of her life to help her navigate the grief of losing her husband in tragic circumstances.
Speaking to VT at the press junket ahead of the series' release, Jennifer was joined by co-star Gemma Chan as they discussed some of their previous roles.
One of Jennifer's most iconic and beloved roles is as Jenna Rink in 13 Going On 30 back in 2004, which is a fond memory from may millennials' childhoods - as well as spawning a million copycat costumes.
As for where Jenna's iconic multicolored dress went - Jennifer has finally revealed all, after it was declared missing many years ago.
When asked if she thought it would become as iconic a look as it did, Jennifer responded: "No, because believe me I would have fought to keep it, if I'd known!"
Gemma then asked her: "Where is that?"
Revealing the answer to the question fans have been dying to know, Jennifer told VT: "It showed up in background, it was just in warehouses and then somebody bought it. A collector bought that and Judy [Greer]'s dress.
"And Judy is like 'get out there and buy us our dresses back!' We've thought about trying to hunt this person down. Do you have our dresses?"
Jennifer added: "I wish I'd known, and that was Susie DeSanto, who also designed our show [The Five Star Weekend]. She's pretty great!"
The original mini-dress, which was made by Versace, went missing after it was placed into storage, and nobody knows for sure who has it now.
Costume designer Susie DeSanto told Cosmopolitan in 2024: "We don’t even know where the dress is."
Jennifer also previously addressed the dress appearing in an episode of Sex and the City, adding: "I can’t believe this dress has taken on a whole life of its own. I did not keep one stitch of clothes from that movie.
"The dress went back to the warehouse and actually showed up on a background player in Sex and the City at some point.
"And then it just disappeared. Nobody knows where it is. Somebody has that dress."
However, Susie added to People that she doesn't think it was the same dress, explaining: "I have a theory about that. We were based in Los Angeles. There weren’t many of those Versace dresses to begin with. It was a very limited run, so I think somebody found that dress in a consignment store in New York [for Sex and the City].
"I don’t think it was Jen’s dress. Her dress went into a warehouse, and I sadly think it’s in a landfill somewhere. Who knows where it is?"
All episodes of The Five Star Weekend will be available on Sky and streaming service NOW on 16 July.
