12 times celebrities talked about what it’s really like to wear daring fashion

Her Alexandre Vauthier gown was sleeveless and backless with a plunging neckline. It also had a deep slit in its skirt that reached her hip.

But as the model told Vogue during a 2021 interview, she felt “nervous” while wearing it — even if the look is now “apparently a very iconic red dress moment.”

“I look very sexual and all these things,” Hadid told Vogue. “I was still nervous about cameras and nervous about having a lot of makeup on.”

She went on to note that the dress didn’t exactly match her style, and gave people a false perception of who she is.

“I kind of get embarrassed of this moment still, even though the dress is gorgeous,” she said. “It just, again, doesn’t feel so much like me, and I think that this was the start of the ‘Bella’ persona that everyone sees of me. That’s my alter ego. That’s Belinda.”

“I’m just so the opposite of her,” she continued. “She’s very va-va-voom. You know, bless her. Love her. She was very nervous.”
