Lauren Sánchez Bezos attended the fourth annual Caring for Women Dinner hosted by the Kering Foundation on Thursday, Sept. 1, in New York. While the evening was meant to highlight a worthy cause, much of the attention turned to Sánchez’s outfit, as she showcased her figure in a bold dress that some fans felt wasn’t the best fit for the elegant event.
For the glamorous evening, the journalist opted for a butter-yellow strapless Schiaparelli gown featuring a structured corset bodice, elegant draping, and a contrasting black back panel that flowed into a subtle train. She completed the look with Jimmy Choo heels and sparkling silver jewelry by Samer Halimeh. See the look here!
With her dark hair styled in soft waves and her signature sultry glam, she struck confident poses on the red carpet.
The annual event brings together leaders from fashion, film, and culture to raise critical funds for organizations fighting gender-based violence and helping survivors reclaim financial independence and stability. Hosted by Salma Hayek Pinault and her husband François-Henri Pinault, the intimate evening serves as a global call to action—working to end gender-based violence and transform the lives of survivors, according to the foundation’s website.
Sánchez, who often faces criticism for her bold fashion choices, once again drew backlash online as many felt her gown was too revealing for the elegant occasion. After she shared a slideshow on Instagram featuring her look alongside fellow guests like Anna Wintour and Georgina Rodríguez, social media users quickly flooded the comments with disapproval.
