Emily Ratajkowski closed NYFW in a series of daring, cleavage-baring looks

From plunging silk dresses to sleek braless tailoring, EmRata’s NYFW presence was anything but subtle.

New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2026 has drawn to a close, and while supermodels like Kendall Jenner made headlines on the runway, Emily Ratajkowski chose a different path — one paved with plunging necklines, provocative tailoring and show-stopping silhouettes. Eschewing the catwalk, the My Body author spent the week commanding attention from the front rows and exclusive soirées alike.

She kicked off NYFW at the W x Bloomingdale’s party, wrapped in a black silk button-down dress that was entirely unbuttoned — save for a draped belt detail slung low at the hips. The deep-V neckline dipped well past her navel, turning the classic shirt dress into an ode to ‘90s seduction. Her accessories? Strappy sandals and a minimalist clutch that let the plunge do the talking.

A few nights later, she arrived at Calvin Klein’s star-studded show — where Lily Collins and Jungkook were also front row — in a knit LBD that revealed more than it concealed. From the front, it seemed demure: high neck, cap sleeves, a subtle high-low hem. But a side view unveiled long cutouts running from shoulder to hip, exposing full sideboob and waist, worn braless for maximum effect.

For the Chopard Ice Cube Party, she embraced power dressing with a twist — a classic black suit, worn with no shirt or bra underneath. The result was razor-sharp, sensual and utterly NYFW: a skin-baring silhouette tempered by sharp lines and kitten-heeled sandals.

EmRata’s wardrobe this season balanced sex appeal and minimalism, redefining what front-row fashion can look like. As the curtains fell yesterday on this latest edition of NYFW, she left a clear message: the most powerful statements aren’t always made on the runway.
