Gwyneth Paltrow was mocked on social media on Tuesday for wearing aviator-style reading glasses at her Utah ski trial that drew comparisons to killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
The 50-year-old actress wore the large glasses along with a cream-colored knit sweater and tweed harem pants during the opening day of a trial in Utah over a 2016 ski collision involving a retired optometrist.
‘Jeffrey Dahmer’s glasses,’ a commenter posted in response to a news article showing Gwyneth wearing the glasses.
‘I like her serial killer vibe,’ another comment read.
Dahmer, also known as the Milwaukee Cannibal, was a serial killer and sex offender who killed and dismembered 17 men and boys between 1978 and 1991 and wore similar glasses in his 1991 mugshot.

Paltrow and Terry Sanderson, the man suing her, sat across from each other in a Park City courtroom as their attorneys gave opening statements that provided strikingly different accounts of the crash. Both described their clients as victims and blamed the other for the collision at Deer Valley, one of the country´s most upscale ski resorts.
The two showed little emotion as attorneys questioned their credibility and version of events on the first day of the trial, which is expected to last eight days. Sanderson’s attorneys said that they plan to call Paltrow to the stand to testify on Friday, but they could do so earlier in the week depending on the other witnesses’ availability.
Paltrrow shielded her face from photographers using a blue “GP”-initialed notebook as she entered and exited the courtroom. Sanderson wore a gray suit and left halfway before witnesses began testifying.
