She isn't necessarily known for her sense of style.

But Lena Dunham appeared rather chic on Monday, displaying her fashionable retro flair as she attended an event with Judd Apatow in New York City after spending the day shopping in Brooklyn.

The 29-year-old entertainer, who joined her mentor as he gave a Q&A for the Film Society of Lincoln Center Summer Talks, made a splash in a Sixties-inspired denim dress featuring bell sleeves and a tie-neck.

The loose-fitted knee-length number was detailed with a ribbed neckline and cuffed around her wrists.

The Girls actress and creator teamed her denim dress with funky platform sandals and a petite dusty pink crossbody bag.

Lena appeared to be wearing minimal make-up and kept her cell phone at hand as she took on the town.

Over the weekend, the award-winning star joined her BFF Taylor Swift on stage during her 1989 World Tour in New Jersey.

She and other famous friends have been helping out the country crooner while performing her hit single, Bad Blood.

Meanwhile, Lena recently surprised her fans as she made the decision to not marry her longtime boyfriend, Jack Antonoff, after same-sex couples won the right to marry nationwide by the US Supreme Court.

...NOW GET ONE LIKE IT FOR LESS

She explained her complicated thought process about postponing her nuptial ceremony in an essay penned for The New Yorker which was released on Friday.

Lena was one of the most outspoken activists in support of legalizing same-sex marriage in the States, even going as far as boycotting marriage until every human was given the right.

'I liked that our anti-marriage plan wasn't absolute, and that it teased at a brighter future for all (a future where I might get to wear the fluffy white dress),' she wrote about her wedding fever.

'Soon after, another kind of text started to trickle in: "Now you can get married!" "Hello, bride to be" "So, when's the wedding??"' the actress fondly remembered after the Court decision.

Her joy was overshadowed with thoughts of second guessing her stance on wedlock, as she explained: 'We were exposed, vulnerable to marriage's strange power once more.

'Had a perfectly earnest moral and political stance actually been a convenient stalling tactic?'

As Lena recollected, Jack felt no immediacy, 'because, as a man, his entire life has not been shaped by a desire for, or a rejection of, a fluffy white dress.'

In fact, she was the first one to bring up the idea of deferring their future nuptials.

'I held Jack's hand and said, "Let's not talk about marriage for a while, O.K.?" He looked grateful and relieved. I felt unburdened but sad. The subject wasn't particularly loaded for him. It never would be.'

However, wedding bells are not entirely off the table for the couple of three years and remain a definite maybe.
