Sarah Paulson kept several pieces of her late friend Diane Keaton‘s clothing, including one memento that reminds her of the final time they held hands.

During the Tuesday, Nov. 10 episode of The Run-Through with Vogue podcast, the 51-year-old All’s Fair star revealed that she has “some” of Keaton’s clothes to remember the actress, including a particularly special sweatshirt Paulson says she won’t ever wash or wear.

“I have this sweatshirt that I last held her hand in,” Paulson told Vogue‘s Nicole Phelps on the podcast, “and it has not been washed.”

Keaton died of pneumonia on Oct. 11, 2025, at 79 years old. Since then, the American Horror Story star said that the sweatshirt belonging to her late friend has remained untouched — and she plans to keep it that way.

“It’s been a year, and it’s still sitting folded exactly by the bed where it’s remained,” Paulson said. “I don’t wanna wash it. I don’t wanna wear it. I just feel like her DNA is on it, and I don’t want that to go.”

The Ocean’s 8 actress detailed another keepsake from Keaton’s closet she has held on to, and has no plans to wear: “I have a hat that has her makeup on the inside of it from her forehead.”

“She would always put, like, a heel guard in the back of the hat to fit her head perfectly,” Paulson explained.

“So I’ve got a hat with a lot of her makeup on it, and I don’t think I’ll wear that either,” she added. “I just have it, you know?”

Keaton was known for her role in the Godfather films and her collaborations with director Woody Allen, which earned her an Oscar win for her work in 1977’s Annie Hall. She and Paulson met when they filmed the 1999 movie The Other Sister, in which Keaton played Paulson’s mother.

After Keaton’s death, Paulson also honored her with a tattoo. She — along with about nine other people, she said on The Run-Through with Vogue — got the late actress’s initials inked on her skin.

Paulson previously debuted the tattoo in January, on what would have been the late star’s 80th birthday.

She shared a photo of the tattoo, a small “DK” in black ink on her wrist, along with a message about Keaton on Instagram.

“You would have been 80 today,” Paulson wrote at the time. “Too many deep feelings to put here… I was the luckiest person in the world to have traveled, laughed so hard we cried, watched a million and one movies, really cried, and eaten French fries with you. You. You. Wondrous, singular, YOU. I will miss you till the end of time.”

The Emmy winner previously paid tribute to Keaton while speaking at The Hollywood Reporter‘s Women in Entertainment Gala in L.A. in December 2025.

“I want to tell you how much crummier the world is without you in it,” Paulson addressed her late friend, reciting an email she wished she could now send. “I want to tell you how the world lost its mind with grief the day you died.”
