Nina Dobrev turned heads in a see-through Gabriela Hearst dress, going braless at the Vogue Pre Met Gala Party on May 1. Her look for the star-studded event was a masterclass in avant-garde minimalism, as her outfit played with texture and transparency. The ensemble highlighted her toned figure and added just the right amount of edge to her styling.
Nina Dobrev’s braless Gabriela Hearst fishnet dress is as see-through as it gets
Nina Dobrev pulled this braless outfit straight off the runway, specifically Look 21 from Gabriela Hearst Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear Collection. The upper portion of the chocolate wool cashmere knit dress featured a sheer fishnet bodice with long sleeves that extended into delicate fringe detailing at the wrists.
The standout element was the pair of suede opaque bustier cups on the chest. It added a bold pop of color against the skin and the dark netting. Meanwhile, the back of the bodice featured a droplet-shaped cutout, as well as similar smaller cutouts at the hip.
A sharp, V-shaped waistline, accented with a thin line of suede embroidery, defined the transition from the bodice to the skirt. The lower half of the gown was a sleek, form-fitting black maxi skirt. The skirt was a grounded, elegant contrast to the airy, see-through top. Further, a slit at the back of the skirt allowed for easy movement while maintaining a structured silhouette.
Styled by Bailey Moon, Dobrev paired the dress with a large, structured clutch in a matching shade of suede. It featured a gold-tone clasp. Her styling was polished and minimalist, letting the dress’s daring construction stand out. Black strappy heels completed her look. Further, she was wearing a single gold earcuff. She wore her hair pulled back into a sleek, low ponytail with a middle part and face-framing strands. Her makeup was simple with black eyeliner, pink blush, and a nude lip.
