    Kaia Gerber isn't afraid to wear a totally sheer dress when the occasion calls for it. For instance, she arrived at Venice Film Festival in 2025 in a lacy Givenchy gown, perfectly emulating Old Hollywood glamour. And on February 15, 2026, the model and actress brought the same chic, see-through vibes to the red carpet at the Independent Spirit Awards.

    Cindy Crawford's daughter instantly caught everyone's attention when she arrived at the ceremony, thanks to her jaw-dropping dress. Gerber opted for a slinky black lace dress from Givenchy's Pre-Fall 2026 collection, featuring an intricate, and completely sheer, floral embroidery.

    Unsurprisingly, the model's striking dress didn't need much accessorizing. For footwear, Gerber wore a pair of black pointed-toe patent pumps with stiletto heels. A delicate pair of diamond earrings completed her award-worthy outfit.

    Gerber's dress is also further proof that fall 2025's delicate lace trend is far from over, and most definitely still works in spring 2026. The model forwent a bra with the dress, but she did wear a matching black thong as part of the outfit.
