Jessica Alba embraced a romantic look with a gothic-glamour edge as she stepped out July 9. The actress graced the Fendi Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture show at Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome alongside her partner, Danny Ramirez. The Fendi show marked creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri’s first couture show for the brand.
The 45-year-old oozed chic in a sheer black midi dress from the fashion house's Resort 2027 collection – Look 2, to be exact. Crafted from chiffon, the garment featured floral lace overlays with a plunging neckline and flowing silhouette. The dress boasted an asymmetrical cut at the skirt with lace panels and a sheer bodice.
Jessica added depth to the look via metal accents, with gold cuffs on both wrists and a matching gold choker necklace. The ensemble was accessorized with a black leather Fendi bag adorned with silver studs and pointed-toe black patent pumps worn with black socks. Her luscious locks were left down in soft waves while her makeup exuded glam, courtesy of a bronze eye and a glossy lip.

Meanwhile, Jessica's socks with heels look is nothing new when it comes to the fashion sphere. During the autumn/winter 2025 collections, the styling trick peppered the runway. At Miu Miu, knee-high socks in an array of hues were paired with sleek stilettos. Meanwhile, Chanel styled its signature black-and-white block pumps with delicate pointelle, bow-adorned socks, while Louis Vuitton teamed ankle boots with thigh-high iterations.
