Alex Consani's Crinkly Silver Bandage Dress Is Like an Unearthed Treasure
Alex Consani is pushing the boundaries of fresh fashion. On Tuesday evening, the supermodel graced the 2025 Fashion Fund Dinner, hosted by CFDA and Vogue at the Crane Club, wearing a stunning Gucci creation. This dress, a masterpiece by artistic director Demna, is a far cry from ordinary fashion. It's a shimmering, tinfoil-like dress that sparkles with a unique metallic texture, resembling the front of a slick, flaky rock face.
The high-neck design features a crinkly metallic surface, interrupted only along the bust and hips by a smoother, ribbed texture in the same reflective fabric. It's a bold statement, a true work of art, and a departure from conventional fashion. Consani's ensemble was a part of Gucci's 'La Famiglia' collection, unveiled in September, which boasted an array of shimmering pieces, from sequined silver minidresses to golden Art Nouveau designs.
Demna's creative vision for Gucci is evident in Consani's outfit, a tiger-printed cropped coat from the Spring/Summer 2026 collection, worn as a dress with a gold, chain-like belt. The supermodel completed the look with golden hoop earrings, black leather heels, and a signature red-and-green striped shoulder bag. This ensemble is a testament to the start of a beautiful fashion friendship, where Consani's unique style and Demna's artistic direction merge seamlessly.
