Fellow model Amber Valletta also opted for custom Gucci, in a black column gown with a plunging open back, a silver ornamental detail, and a thigh-baring slit that extended almost to her waist. Emily Ratajkowski chose a white draped Gucci number with a plunging neckline and dramatically open sides, paired with a sky-high leg slit.
There were plenty more variations on the theme. Alix Earle embraced the evening’s maximalist mood in a silver Gucci, disco-ready halter gown dripping with strands of shimmering embellishment, with a thigh-high slit emerging from beneath the metallic fringe. Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn also turned to Gucci, wearing a glittering, one-shouldered purple gown with an asymmetrical neckline and a dramatic slit that revealed a sheer black-stockinged leg. Candice Swanepoel took a similarly sparkling approach in a silver, crystal-strewn gown with a plunging neckline and two daringly high slits, with more sparkle cascading over her legs.
Not everyone was in Gucci, though. Madelaine Petsch opted for a look from Georges Hobeika’s spring 2027 collection, with a black halter-neck bodice that offered a hint of side-boob, and which plunged almost to the waist before meeting a cream floral-embroidered pencil skirt.
The naked dress has long been a Hollywood fixture. Body-conscious designs are beloved by the Kardashian-Jenner clan, having a deep understanding of the impact of a well-placed flash of flesh. But then there’s people like Anya Taylor-Joy, a champion of the sensuous and barely there, keeping a more ghostly and romantic bent with winter-white corsetry by Dilara Findikoglu and forays into vampy Tom Ford. This new iteration, however, uses precision cuts and dramatic contrasts to draw the eye to particular parts of the body.
