At the Dior Haute Couture Show, Karlie Kloss made a compelling case for sheer fabrics and daring backless silhouettes as modern power moves in her own Dior dress. The model embraced quiet drama for her Paris outing, proving that loud fashion statements don’t always come from bold colours and heavy embellishments.
Karlie Kloss shows up in a sheer and backless Dior dress for Paris Couture Week
On January 26, Karlie Kloss took to her Instagram to share some photos of her stunning look in a black Dior dress. It was a look from Dior’s Pre-fall 2026 collection. Crafted from sheer matte fabric, the gown featured a soft cowl neck on one shoulder, and three-quarter puff sleeves cinched at the wrists. Its high-low hemline swayed gently with every step.
The most striking detail of the dress was the low plunging back that left her back bare. The contrast between the modest front and the dramatic back created a compelling tension. The dress served as a reminder that power dressing does not always require sharp-tailored suits and embroidered gowns.
Styled by Natasha Colvin, Kloss kept her accessories minimal to let the gown shine on its own. She slipped into black leather, squared-toed Dior Muse Pumps, featuring a delicate ankle strap across the instep. She was also carrying a Dior Cigale bag, designed by Jonathan Anderson. Celebrity hairstylist Ricky Fraser styled her hair in a low bun with a middle part. Loose strands of hair framing her face gave her a playful look. Her makeup was simple with black eyeliner and pink blush, courtesy of Tobi Henney.
In the caption of her post, Karlie Kloss wrote, “Thank you for having me @jonathan.anderson @dior.” In the comment section, the brand’s official page wrote, “Thanks for being a part of this special moment.” Meanwhile, fans showered her with compliments, as one wrote, “Wow you look stunning!!!!!” Another commented, “Truly perfection.”
