Adriana Lima looks absolutely stunning in everything she wears, but the former Victoria’s Secret Angel truly showed off her incredible physique and impeccably fashion sense in a backless dress this week!

To quote herself, Lima “slayed” the recent look–and we couldn’t agree more:

The 38-year-old mom and mogul stepped out for the Harper’s Bazaar ICONS party on September 6th wearing a backless gown that was so jaw-dropping, we’re certain that she would have won “best dressed” and “sexiest” if such accolades had been presented at the celeb-packed event.

Wearing an ombre sequin David Koma London dress that is now sold out at Moda Operandi, Adriana was a total knock-out for the night. The dress from the designer’s Spring/Summer 2019 collection features glittery silver and khaki-green sequins. Stunning!

From a side view that the label shared to their own Instagram page, you can see that the dress also features side cut-outs. A perfect display of the Puma spokeswoman’s hard work at the gym!

Adriana completed the look with her hair down and smokey-eye glam. She credited celebrity stylists Grace Lee and Rebekah Forecast for the sultry look:

We’re still recovering from this slayage, but if you love Adriana’s style for the event you can shop similar backless dress styles now:
