During the Vogue World: Paris festivities in France, Gigi Hadid shone in the spotlight wearing a bejeweled micro mini dress that gave the illusion of her being topless.

The 29-year-old supermodel was hosting the afterparty of Vogue World: Paris, Vogue’s annual runway show, on Monday, June 24.

Her Balmain Resort 2025 dress was an electric-blue sequined piece that cleverly gave the illusion of a bare chest.

Gigi—described as the “poster girl” for Vogue World: Paris—appeared earlier that day for the runway show at Place Vendôme.

She and Kendall Jenner were dressed from head to toe in Hermès as they rode out on horses in front of the audience at the Parisian plaza.

For her second trip to the Place Vendôme, Gigi closed out the Vogue World 2024 show in Paris wearing a finale dress created by Olivier Rousteing, a French fashion designer and the creative director for Balmain since 2011.

“Balmain was one of the first shows [Gigi] walked in Paris in 2014 or 2015, so it feels like we have come full circle,” Olivier told Vogue. “It’s amazing to see how her career has grown, to witness her strength and devotion to fashion. Gigi is obviously this generation’s supermodel—which, in my opinion, is akin to being an athlete of sorts—but beyond that she is the new goddess of the fashion world. And the dress I have made is one for a goddess.”

“At first I was like… no. Then the more I looked at it, I really liked it. It’s silly, original fun,” a social media user wrote about her illusion-creating dress

Later that day, the runway star was pictured in her afterparty mini dress, which boldly showed off a woman’s bare chest against the sparkly iridescent fabric.

The internet had mixed opinions about the head-turning Balmain design, with one social media user branding it as “Stunnnnnning,” while another thought it was “very tacky.”
