Margot Robbie Channeled ’90s Cindy Crawford in a See-Through Corset at the 2023 Met Gala

Margot Robbie will be always be a Chanel girl at heart, and her 2023 Met Gala look proved as much. The Barbie actor paid tribute to the man whose legacy inspired this year’s theme—”Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”—by resurrecting a Chanel design he sent down the spring/summer runway thirty years ago. 

Robbie’s one-shouldered gown, which centers on a transparent corset with gold chain boning, is a recreation of the 1993 original famously worn by supermodel Cindy Crawford. But the archival design draws a direct line between Lagerfeld’s work and the current trend cycle, where exposed panties, sheer textiles, and lingerie-inspired details continue to dominate. 

“I’m wearing Chanel, this dress was worn by Cindy Crawford in 1993,” Robbie told La La Anthony during Vogue‘s live coverage of the carpet. “They remade it for me and it’s obviously a Karl design. I feel really great in it actually.”
