If the dress code for The Last of Us Season 2 premiere was strapless, then both Kaitlyn Dever and Isabela Merced clearly got the memo. While Isabela leaned into full-on high glamour with a sultry edge, Kaitlyn stayed true to her signature understated style in a Carolina Herrera embellished-lace column gown from the Resort 2025 collection.
Now, some might argue that this look still has a hint of sultry appeal. And sure, there are sheer elements at play, but this was never that kind of sheer dress—you know, the ones that have us collectively rolling our eyes at their near-invisibility. Instead, Kaitlyn’s dress is the perfect balance of demure and alluring, proving that a touch of transparency can be done with class.
What I love most about this look is that it feels like a natural style evolution for her. It has a level of refinement that reads as a fashion graduation, without tipping over into too mature territory. And those subtle sparkles scattered throughout the gown? A dreamy little detail that adds just the right amount of red carpet magic.
Finishing the look with an elegant updo, Kaitlyn kept things effortlessly polished.
