Olandria Carthen brought a little wild energy to Roberto Cavalli’s Spring/Summer 2027 show in Milan.

The model and reality star stepped out in a smoky black-and-silver slip dress that played with texture from top to bottom. Its feather-like finish gave the otherwise delicate silhouette a much more dramatic attitude.

A deep cowl neckline softened the look, while gathered detailing at the hip spilled into a thigh-high slit, adding movement to the floor-length design.

Olandria kept everything else sleek. Straight hair with curtain bangs gave the look a cool finish, while oversized hoops, stacked bracelets and strappy heels added just enough shine.

The contrast is what made it work. The dress was deliberately dramatic, but the styling never competed with it.

For a Roberto Cavalli front row, anything less would have been too tame.
