Kaia Gerber made a striking appearance at the 2026 Film Independent Spirit Awards. She stepped onto the blue carpet in a completely see-through Givenchy mesh dress that balanced minimalism with bold fashion. The model and actress, known for both her runway career and film projects, chose a sleek black look from Givenchy’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection for the occasion.
Kaia Gerber graces Independent Spirit Awards in completely see-through Givenchy mesh dress
Her sleeveless dress featured a high neckline and a body-skimming silhouette that extended to a mid-calf length. This created a clean, elongated line. It was crafted from intricate black mesh, the fabric revealed subtle sheerness throughout, allowing the detailed patterning to take centre stage. The delicate floral motifs added texture and dimension, elevating the otherwise pared-back design. While the gown was entirely see-through, its refined cut and strategic construction kept the look tasteful rather than overpowering.
Gerber styled the dress with understated confidence. She wore her long, brunette hair smooth and straight with a soft side part, letting it fall naturally over her shoulders. The simplicity of her hairstyle complemented the sleekness of the gown. Her makeup followed a similarly minimal approach, featuring softly defined brows, neutral eyeshadow, a touch of mascara, and a nude lip that enhanced her natural features without distracting from the outfit.
She completed the look with simple, tiny earrings, allowing the craftsmanship of the Givenchy piece to remain the focal point. The overall effect was modern and clean, aligning with the brand’s sophisticated aesthetic. Standing tall with her natural model height, Gerber furthered her frame even more with sleek black stilettos. The heels added extra elevation and reinforced the streamlined feel of the ensemble.
The Haute Couture Corner shared images of Gerber’s look on Instagram, where the ensemble quickly drew attention for its daring transparency and craftsmanship. With this appearance, Kaia Gerber once again demonstrated her ability to merge high fashion with red carpet moments, delivering a look that was both out there and refined.
