Sydney Sweeney Wears A Sheer Silver Dress To The 'Variety' Power of Women
On Wednesday, October 29th, the Euphoria star was one of many popular female celebrities who stepped out for Variety's Power of Women event, a ceremony dedicated to influential and powerful women in media and entertainment, highlighting those who have made statements or philanthropic achievements throughout their careers.
With her upcoming biopic film, Christy, in which Sydney plays the famous professional female boxer, Christy Martin, she was a highly anticipated guest, but it looks like the dress she wore on the red carpet is what's capturing most people's attention.
On the red carpet, Sydney stepped out in a silver, chainmail-style dress that shimmered and hugged her figure as she posed for photographers. The dress, which can be seen here, was quite sheer, exposing her chest, making it easy for her to make a statement in her look. She had her blonde hair styled in her new bob haircut and kept her accessories to a minimum, leaving all eyes on her racy gown.
The Internet Reacts To Sydney's Silver Dress On Social Media
Given that she was attending an event that was dedicated to honoring powerful and accomplished women, Sydney's see-through dress sparked a lot of controversy online, with numerous internet users debating whether or not the dress was an appropriate choice on various platforms.
"That is quite the dress!" commented an Instagram user.
"She's that girl," added another.
Some critics of the look felt that even though Sydney might've been going for a more elegant look, the see-through element didn't allow for that to happen.
"Even when she's trying to be classy, it's just somehow….. NOT," wrote a user.
"Is it supposed to be cool?" asked another, referring to the dress. "It's not."
"She is desperate for attention," added another.
"Nope, nothing about this is classy or promoting women," wrote a user.
We'll be curious to see if the actress responds to the backlash and debate surrounding her dress, but for now, it'll likely go down as one of the most talked-about gowns of the year.
