Laverne Cox brought her obsession with Mugler to Saturday’s NAACP Image Awards 2025 red carpet. The actress attended the awards ceremony, held in Los Angeles, in a nude-illusion gown from the French brand.

Cox’s gown featured a nude strapless corset, lace-up closure and a black panel dropping down from her bodice and transitioning into a skirt. She accessorized her look with a vintage Thierry Mugler centerpiece collar, dangling gold and crystal earrings and the Mugler X H&M teardrop ring.
