This might be the second time Gabrielle Union nailed a risqué dress with bold and chic sheer panels in Paris Fashion Week. On top of that, she debuted a dramatic and fun hair makeover — a French bob — while making a noticeable appearance at Monday’s Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2025 show. Union was all smiles rocking her new hairdo in the partially see-through, off-shoulder dress that she layered with an overcoat, making her appearance just so Paris-coded.
Union previously wore an almost similar dress in Miami for her husband Dwyane Wade’s statue unveiling in October. Her slinky and sheer attire comprised alternate rows of sparkling bands, and she looked like a complete stunner.

New PFW photos proved nobody does high fashion better than Gabrielle Union, whose outfit for the Schiaparelli show had racy sheer panels. Kicking off fashion week with an absolute knockout ensemble, Union stunned in a slinky black dress with alternating sheer panels from the Italian fashion house. Her off-shoulder dress was both chic and bold, comprising equal parts of see-through and solid black. More snippets of the attendee’s complete look showed her arriving at the venue with an additional layer of an overcoat, which she removed to flaunt her one-of-a-kind dress.
Union further elevated her look by debuting a dramatic hair transformation — a French bob. She looked confident and radiant posing for the camera in her truly sensational appearance. In addition, the actor rocked extremely high pointed-toe heels with large bulb detailings on the front. For her accessories, she wore statement gold pieces, including a bangle, a watch, and a couple of rings. Furthermore, her makeup looked as gorgeous as ever with accented eyebrows, dramatic eye makeup, some neutral tones, and subtle rosy cheeks.
Gabrielle Union later recapped her unforgettable experience at PFW’s Schiaparelli show with Instagram photos. In the social media dump, she shared a few photos posing in her iconic outfit and playful new hair. The carousel also consisted of brief glimpses of her arriving at the venue and sitting front-row for the show alongside Kelly Rutherford and Regina King. Another snippet showed Union posing with the fashion house’s creative director, Daniel Roseberry, while one more displayed a BTS scene of her glam-up process.
