Exploring Jennifer Aniston’s wardrobe, her best friend was shocked by 2 outfits that Jennifer only wore once but were carefully preserved and treasured by her.

Jennifer Aniston, the timeless Friends icon, has long been celebrated for her impeccable style, from red-carpet elegance to her signature casual chic. But a recent peek into her sprawling Bel-Air closet by her best friend, Courteney Cox, revealed a surprising twist: two outfits, each worn only once, meticulously preserved and deeply treasured by the 56-year-old star. The discovery, shared by Cox during a candid chat on The Drew Barrymore Show, has sent fans into a frenzy, sparking speculation about the sentimental stories behind these sartorial keepsakes and what they reveal about Aniston’s private world.

Cox, 60, who has remained close to Aniston since their Friends days, was invited to explore her friend’s wardrobe while helping select looks for an upcoming The Morning Show event. Expecting a parade of designer gowns and tailored jeans, Cox was floored by two garments displayed like museum pieces in a climate-controlled section of Aniston’s closet. “I was speechless,” Cox told Barrymore. “Jen’s so practical, but these two outfits? They’re preserved like relics, and she only wore them once. It’s so unlike her, but so her at the same time.”

The first outfit, a cream silk slip dress by John Galliano for Dior, was worn by Aniston at the 1999 Emmy Awards, where Friends was nominated for Outstanding Comedy Series. The minimalist gown, with its delicate spaghetti straps, was a departure from the era’s flashy trends, cementing Aniston’s status as a style icon. Cox recalled Aniston’s excitement at the time, noting, “She felt like a princess, but it was more than that. She told me it marked a moment when she felt truly herself.” Fans on X dug up photos, marveling at the dress’s pristine condition, with one tweeting, “Jen keeping that Dior dress is peak nostalgia. It’s like preserving Rachel Green’s glow!”

The second outfit, a black Armani tuxedo suit, was worn to the 2004 Golden Globes, shortly after Aniston’s split from Brad Pitt. The tailored ensemble, paired with a simple white shirt, projected strength and defiance amid tabloid frenzy. “That suit was Jen saying, ‘I’m still standing,’” Cox shared. “She told me she keeps it to remember her resilience.” The revelation hit fans hard, with #JenWardrobe trending as users posted, “That Armani suit is Jen’s armor. No wonder she treasures it.” Another wrote, “She wore it once but kept it forever? That’s a story in itself.”

Aniston’s decision to preserve these outfits, stored in archival garment bags with temperature controls, puzzled Cox, given her friend’s practical nature. “Jen’s not one to hoard,” Cox said. “She donates most of her clothes, but these two? They’re like time capsules.” Sources close to Aniston told People that the actress, who values sentimental mementos, sees the outfits as milestones. The Dior dress represents her ascent as a cultural icon, while the Armani suit symbolizes personal triumph over heartbreak. “They’re not just clothes,” the insider said. “They’re chapters of her life.”

The discovery comes amid heightened attention on Aniston, following a recent stalking incident at her home and rumors of health concerns sparked by a medical alert bracelet. Her wardrobe revelation offers a softer glimpse into her world, highlighting her reflective side. Fans have flooded X with admiration, with one post reading, “Jen preserving those outfits shows how much she values her journey. It’s so human.” Others speculated about other hidden treasures, with some hoping for a memoir to unpack these stories.

Aniston has yet to comment publicly, but her stylist, Nina Clare, hinted to Vogue that the actress’s closet is “a curated archive of her evolution.” The preserved outfits align with Aniston’s low-key approach to fame—she cherishes private moments over public fanfare. Cox, wrapping up her story, told Barrymore, “It made me see Jen in a new light. She’s sentimental in ways you wouldn’t expect.”

As The Morning Show season four looms and Aniston continues to navigate life’s highs and lows, the wardrobe reveal has endeared her further to fans. The Dior dress and Armani suit, worn once but cherished forever, stand as testaments to a woman who carries her past with grace, even as she steps boldly into the future.
