She wore a Steve O Smith Fall 2025 gown — a label that first entered the red carpet conversation through Eddie Redmayne in 2024, followed by Emma Corrin. What each look shares is that the designer uses beautifully transforming versions of his own expressive drawings, applying traditional techniques to bring his art to life in fabric form.

I love that Fan Bingbing continues to choose pieces that still feel true to her signature sense of grandeur, while championing contemporary designers. The black brushstroke design gives this gown such powerful energy — dynamic yet graceful — while the illusion cut-outs add just the right amount of edge.

At first glance, this may look similar to the gown Hannah Redmayne wore to the 2024 Met Gala, but the interpretation here is completely different. The brushwork is bolder, the composition more fluid, and the overall effect feels made for her.

Fan looks incredible — elegant, confident, and utterly charming, as always.
