Elle Fanning’s sheer backless dress with daring neckline might be her boldest yet
Elle Fanning’s sheer backless dress from Ralph Lauren recently turned heads at the 2025 Gotham Film Awards. The star-studded ceremony took place on Monday night in New York City. Among glitter and glam, the “Maleficent” actress slayed in a white backless gown, giving her own modern twist to the famous Marilyn Monroe look.
With a halter neck design, Fanning’s gown consisted of a daring neckline dropping in a V shape over her navel. Furthermore, due to the halter design, it was a bare-back look, highlighting her features. As for the bottom of the dress, it comprised a flowing skirt, falling weightlessly on the floor.
Meanwhile, the sheer fabric forming light pleats made the outfit more captivating and dreamy. While Fanning slayed in the gorgeous gown, the overall look was curated by stylist Samantha McMillen, along with her colleagues, Bryson Chase and Lex Robinson.
With the help of MUA Erin Ayanian Monroe, the actress’s makeup was on point. Her bold brows, lined eyes, light blush, and glossy lips complemented the overall style. Hairstylist Jenna Alcorn’s hairdo also had Fanning earn brownie points on the red carpet. Furthermore, she finished her look with Cartier jewelry, including a diamond and emerald necklace, with a chunky bracelet on one wrist.
Aside from her, the star-studded award ceremony also welcomed many other A-list celebrities. Some of them include Jennifer Lawrence, Rihanna, Kristen Stewart, Rose Byrne, Jessie Buckley, Jacob Elordi, Julia Roberts, and Amanda Seyfried.
