Sydney Sweeney Stuns in Daring Sheer Sparkly Dress — The Bold Braless Look That Had Everyone Talking at the Variety Event in Los Angeles
Sydney Sweeney knows how to make an entrance, and her latest red-carpet appearance proved she’s one of Hollywood’s most confident fashion risk-takers. The 27-year-old Euphoria and Anyone But You star turned heads at Variety’s Power of Women event in Los Angeles, arriving in a breathtaking sheer sparkly gown that shimmered under the lights — and left little to the imagination.
The dress, crafted from a gauzy metallic fabric, clung perfectly to Sweeney’s figure and featured a plunging neckline, open back, and high slit that added extra drama to the look. Opting to go braless beneath the see-through design, she balanced the daring choice with elegant simplicity — pairing the gown with silver strappy heels, minimal jewelry, and her signature soft-wave hairstyle.
As soon as she stepped onto the carpet, cameras flashed and social media erupted. Fans and fashion watchers alike flooded X and Instagram with praise for her bold style, calling the look “fearless,” “old-Hollywood glam with a twist,” and “the moment of the night.” Within hours, photos of Sweeney dominated entertainment headlines, confirming yet again her status as one of the most talked-about young stars in the industry.
But beyond the glitter and the spotlight, Sweeney used the evening to champion causes close to her heart. The Euphoria actress, who has become increasingly vocal about women’s empowerment in entertainment, joined other honorees in celebrating female creatives and leaders. During interviews on the red carpet, she spoke about how events like Variety’s highlight the importance of mentorship and unity among women in Hollywood.
“I think confidence comes from owning who you are — in your work, your choices, and your skin,” Sweeney told reporters. “Tonight is about celebrating that strength in all of us.”
Her look was undeniably daring, yet it perfectly captured her evolving public persona — a mix of sweetness and self-assurance that has helped her carve a unique identity in an industry that thrives on image. Stylists and designers have noted that Sweeney’s red-carpet choices consistently push the boundaries between classic elegance and modern edge. Her latest appearance was no exception: the perfect fusion of glamour, artistry, and attitude.
Fashion critics praised the gown’s craftsmanship, noting how its strategic layering and metallic detailing created a sense of allure without veering into excess. “It’s not just about showing skin,” one stylist wrote on social media. “It’s about how Sydney commands attention without saying a word.”
The event itself brought out some of Hollywood’s most influential women — from established legends to rising stars — yet it was Sweeney’s confident stride and radiant smile that seemed to capture the spirit of the night. Whether she’s on a movie set, gracing magazine covers, or turning heads on the red carpet, Sydney Sweeney continues to prove she’s more than a fashion moment — she’s a movement.
