At the 2025 SCAD Savannah Film Festival in Savannah, Georgia, Kristen Stewart was honoured with the Rising Star Director Award for her debut directorial feature, The Chronology of Water.
She did more than accept an award — she made a strong style statement.
The Sheer Look: Bold, Unmistakable
For the red carpet, Stewart wore a white-lace ensemble by Rodarte (Spring/Summer 2025 runway piece) composed of a long-sleeve blouse with frilly cuffs and open collar, tied at the chest, and a matching high-waisted midi skirt in sheer lace fabric.
The styling added a twist of contrast: visible black lace underwear beneath the white lace layers, black heels, and a silver chain with a lock pendant.
Her hair was in a messy up-do and her makeup included a dramatic smokey eye to balance the softness of the lace.
Additionally, the festival appearance included a second sheer look — a button-down tailored set by Dzojchen featuring a bra top and velvet mini skirt, paired with Dr. Martens boots and sunglasses.
Style Significance
-
The use of sheer lace makes the outfit visually striking — it plays with transparency, layering, and contrast (white lace + black under-garment) to blend elegance and edge.
-
By choosing Rodarte’s runway piece, Stewart aligns her director persona with fashion haute couture rather than traditional red-carpet glamour.
-
Also visible underwear detail flagged as a Y2K revival trend — the “lingerie as outerwear” move resurfacing in high fashion.
-
Therefore bold fashion choice mirrors her professional pivot (from actor to director), signalling confidence, self-expression and that she’s forging a new identity.
