Late last month the San Francisco Chronicle published a pretty glowing Q&A with indie darling and director Greta Gerwig. Gerwig has received much praise for her films Ladybird and Little Women. And while we're fans of her filmmaking, it's not her skill that's garnering attention over the past couple days. It's an old photo the Chronicle shared from when Gerwig was promoting Greenberg.

The photo, which features Gerwig in a pretty heinous business casual getup, is receiving a lot of attention on Twitter for its overwhelmingly normie look. It's a pretty huge departure from the the artsy indie-sadness look we've grown accustomed to, and the contrast has got people on social media comparing the director to everything from a weather reporter to a wedding planner. The laughs might be a bit cheap, but boy we could use 'em.
