I adore unexpected twists in fashion, when a dress has pockets, a skirt becomes a skort, or a gown is actually a pantsuit. On March 10, Kerry Washington gave the latter plot twist a Hollywood close-up: Her lacy naked dress revealed itself as a separate black top and pants.
To toast her role in AppleTV's Imperfect Women, Washington debuted "the most PERFECT look for the most PERFECT premiere," according to her Instagram post. Styling duo Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn dressed her in a nearly-naked matching set seen in Zuhair Murad's Pre-Fall 2026 look book. The second-skin selects started with a $2,290 mock-neck long-sleeve, crafted entirely from transparent floral lace. Then, Washington slipped on the matching $2,535 trousers, which were as lightweight as they were sheer. Each semi-flared hem stretched far beyond her platform, ankle-strap pumps.
