Ciara's Sequined Second-skin Dress by Bronx & Banco Sparkles at the 2025 ESPY Awards Red Carpet
Ciara embraced the naked illusion trend at the 2025 ESPY Awards in Los Angeles, showcasing her sartorial style on the red carpet alongside her husband, New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson.
The singer wore a form-fitting, off-the-shoulder design by Bronx & Banco in a beige tone covered entirely in sequin embellishments. The garment featured long sleeves with a structured off-shoulder neckline that created a horizontal line across the chest. The dress followed the body's contours closely through the torso and hips, extending to floor length.

Ciara's look aligns with the current maximalist trend of heavy embellishment and the enduring popularity of nude palettes, which create an illusion of second-skin dressing.
Ciara completed her look with her blond hair styled in a more voluminous, layered approach. The makeup palette shifted toward warmer tones with a glossy lip finish.
At the 2024 ESPYs, Ciara took the stage during the opening segment with a high-energy medley of her greatest hits, including 'Goodies,' 'Level Up,' and '1, 2 Step.' The performance earned her a standing ovation and a special nod from host Serena Williams, who hosted the ceremony. The singer wore a black jumpsuit featuring corsetry, structured bra cups and a plunging neckline.
The 2025 ESPY Awards, hosted by comedian Shane Gillis, air live on Wednesday from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles at 8 p.m. ET on ABC and stream on ESPN+. The annual event, presented by ESPN, brings together elite athletes, celebrities and sports fans to celebrate the most memorable achievements, moments and stories from the past year in sports.
