Gomez probably wore the dress because she wanted to wear it so I don't think that, by itself, is sexism. According to the article, actresses can get a lot of money for wearing certain fashions or jewelry. It would be interesting to know if actors get the same perks.
There is a tendency for the media that covers actors and actresses to be more critical of how women dress than men. If Gomez had worn an outfit similar to Sandlers, tabloid magazines would have been more negative in their reaction to her. I am not certain if that is sexism or just one of those cultural stupidities that we don't question even though we should.
Gomez, by the way, did not look uncomfortable in that photo. I couldn't tell anything about her feelings just from that one picture
