GWYNETH Paltrow has been slammed for donning a “Jeffrey Dahmer look” while she stands trial for allegedly crashing into a retired doctor on the ski slopes.
Attorneys representing Dr. Terry Sanderson claimed the Oscar-winning actress’s “conscious disregard for people” left the former Army optometrist with four broken ribs and permanent brain damage, a court heard Tuesday.

Paltrow, 50, arrived at the Park Slope, Utah, court donning aviator specs and a high-neck sweater to hear the doctor’s side of the conflicting narrative on Tuesday.
Sanderson’s team claims the Shakespeare in Love actress slammed into him while she was distractedly looking at the mountainside in 2016.
In the 2019 lawsuit, he alleges that she and her family left him there without calling for help and is asking for $300,000 in damages.
Meanwhile, Paltrow’s story is the complete opposite with her team claiming that it was actually Sanderson, 76, who ran into her with a “full body hit.”
They argued that he approached her from the top of the slope, meaning she had the right of way, according to ski etiquette.
She’s asking for $1 and legal fees in a countersuit filed one month after Sanderson’s.
Social media users erupted online after images of her outfit sparked comparisons to infamous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.
“I like her serial killer vibe,” one person said on Instagram.
Another wrote: “Those are the worst glasses.”
“Jeffrey Dahmer meets Gwyneth Paltrow,” a third person teased.

However, this is not the first time that Paltrow has worn the $289 pair of Caddis glasses which are also sold on her brand Goop’s website, the New York Post reports.
She recently donned the pair in an Instagram story dedicated to addressing her strange eating habits.
On the second day of trial, the actress ditched the glasses, but it’s unclear if she was aware of the online backlash.
Sanderson has missed out on “many of the things that gave him pleasure in life,” after he suffered an extreme bout of depression following the alleged accident, University of California radiology professor Wendell Gibby testified.
“After his accident, he deteriorated abruptly,” Gibby claimed.
“His personal interaction with his children and grandchildren suffered. He has problems multitasking.”
He said that he could not pin the new health problems on pre-existing issues.
A witness for the prosecution also alleged that he watched the Goop founder slam into Sanderson and then “bolt away.”
Paltrow’s team said she was on the slopes with her future husband Brad Falchuck, three of their prospective children, and ski instructors.
Both are to debate ski etiquette to determine who had the right of way at the time of the crash.
The actress claims that she was downhill, making him responsible, for the incident.
Sanderson’s attorney Lawrence D. Buhler said that his client was briefly unconscious after the incident and was later taken to the hospital.
Gwyneth and multiple members of her family are set to take the stand throughout the trial which is expected to last two weeks.
