In the upcoming romantic comedy "Good Sex," Natalie Portman plays Ally, a couples therapist approaching 40, navigating the New York City dating scene. The film's setting provides a perfect backdrop for a fusion of urban chic and professional style, potentially reflecting contemporary New York fashion trends.

Recent paparazzi photos of Portman on a Manhattan sidewalk offer a sneak peek into her character's wardrobe. She is seen wearing a khaki trench, white tank, blue-and-white striped boxers, Gucci loafers with white socks, a Jacquemus handbag, and a Sotheby's baseball hat. Her outfit reads as conspicuously moneyed, resembling a well-to-do appearance, reminiscent of a wealthy mom or a TikTok creator.

The boxers-as-shorts trend, perfected by stylish women like Portman, is also apparent in the film. Portman's character is also seen wearing whiskered blue jeans and a vintage tee commemorating the Cure's 1992 Wish tour. Her character's wardrobe bears a resemblance to an outfit Paul Mescal wore at a Gucci runway show, adding another layer of style to the film.

Mark Ruffalo plays one of the men in an age-gap love triangle with Portman's character. Tucker Pillsbury, known as Role Model, plays the other man. Role Model's character is expected to wear crop tops, adding a unique twist to the film's fashion.

While the specific fashion inspiration behind Portman's character remains undisclosed, considering Lena Dunham's style and the character's personality could offer some insights. Known for her portrayal of relatable characters in her work, such as in "Girls," where fashion played a significant role in reflecting the characters' personalities and lifestyles, Dunham's vision might have influenced the fashion in "Good Sex."

Ally, Portman's character, is likely to dress in a way that reflects her professional background yet also transitions into a more playful, experimental style as she navigates new relationships. Her outfits could blend professional attire suitable for a therapist with a more adventurous, playful touch for her personal life. Elements of New York City's urban style, such as modern dresses, tailored trousers, and statement accessories, might also be incorporated.

As the filming of "Good Sex" continues, fans and fashion enthusiasts eagerly await more insights into the fashion inspiration behind Portman's character. Interviews with the film's costume designer or statements from the production team would provide the most accurate information regarding the fashion in the film.
