You would never guess that the Gucci ‘Love Parade’ fashion show took place in November, because most of the guests in attendance wore next to nothing on the red carpet! How were they not shivering?! On Tuesday November 2nd, Gucci shut down the iconic Walk of Fame on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles for the highly-anticipated catwalk show, attended by an A-list crowd ranging from big-name actresses like Olivia Wilde and Dakota Johnson to award-winning musicians like Billie Eilish and Miley Cyrus.
We don’t know if there was an official dress code the guests on the extremely prestigious FROW had to stick to, but we think many of the celebs were in the same group chat when they were deciding what to wear, because they all went for sheer, sexy and sometimes even barely-there ensembles. Let’s take a look at some of our faves…

Olivia Wilde
The 37-year-old Booksmart director was easily one of the sexiest guests on the front row, rocking everyone’s favorite trend of the moment: the sheer trend. How do you make a bralette – one of the most daring items of clothing by anyone’s standards – even sexier? Make it lace and see-through, of course! Oh, and add a corset too, which is probably the second-most daring item a woman could leave the house wearing. She accessorized with a pencil skirt, leather belt bag, knee-high boots, and a piece of jewelry that got the whole internet talking, as she reportedly borrowed 27-year-old boyfriend Harry Styles’ signature gold cross necklace. That’s a cute way to keep him close, since he couldn’t attend the event with her due to being on tour.

Dakota Johnson
Sequins, feathers, sheer bodysuits… this look has it all! We had a feeling that the 32-year-old Fifty Shades of Grey actress – who has been a Gucci ambassador since 2017 – would knock it out the park with her FROW appearance. And we certainly weren’t wrong! Dakota opted for a sexy LBD (emphasis on the little) which came with a nude, sheer, and embellished bodice, which she accessorized with a feathered black jacket, instantly recognizable GG logo tights, a Gucci bag, and some strappy black pumps.
Billie Eilish
The 19-year-old seven-time Grammy winner sported one of the sexiest looks we've ever seen from her, as she wore a racy lace pants and blazer co-ord, accessorized with a floor-length black scarf and an embellished headpiece. Black was the key color here, as she also wore black platform heels, black nail polish on her fingers and toes, and also black sunglasses. The sun had already set by that point, but this is Hollywood after all!
Miley Cyrus
The 28-year-old Wrecking Ball singer, who attended with her mom, Tish Cyrus, was another A-lister who got the memo about sexy fringed fashion. Miley looked every inch the 1920s flapper girl in her sparkly, fringed ensemble, which she accessorized with matching gold shoes and a gold bag by Gucci, naturally. Her godmother Dolly Parton would be so proud of her look, which she finished off with a curly blonde hairdo somewhat reminiscent of the 9 to 5 singer's iconic style, and bold red lipstick.
Gwyneth Paltrow
The 49-year-old Goop founder was another A-lister on our best-dressed list, as she wore a red velvet pantsuit very similar to one she wore all the way back in 1996, with a contrasting blue buttondown underneath. The mom-of-two left quite a dangerous number of buttons open, making this one of the most subtly provocative outfits of the entire night. She definitely knew what she was doing! Let's give some more love to the red velvet suit, because although it came from Gucci’s 2021 Aria collection, it was reportedly largely inspired by the Tom Ford for Gucci Fall 1996 one she wore to the MTV VMAs that year – and apart from the pink Ralph Lauren dress she wore to collect her 'Best Actress' Oscar for her role in Shakespeare in Love back in 1999, it still remains one of her most iconic fashion moments of her entire career. We loved that déjà vu feeling!
