Anne Hathaway looked ethereal as she graced the red carpet for the Mother Mary premiere in New York City on April 13.
The actress wore a sheer white gown by Lever Couture, featuring textured, ruffled detailing with layers of opaque tulle that created a sculptural silhouette. The design was finished with a thigh-high slit and a sleeveless cut. The look was accessorised with a pair of glass heels, a matching clutch bag, and emerald-encrusted statement earrings.

Mother Mary is a psychological-drama thriller written and directed by David Lowery. The film follows a global pop star preparing for a major comeback as she reconnects with her former best friend and creative partner, a fashion designer. As they work together on a new image and stage look, their past relationship resurfaces, turning the collaboration into a tense, emotional clash about fame, identity, and control.

"I've been counting down the days until the release of Mother Mary ever since I saw the first-look pictures of Anne looking like a regal goddess with that golden crown," she shared. "Not only does the movie come from Green Knight director David Lowery, but it's also set to feature original music from Charli XCX and Jack Antonoff. Mother Mary is a psychological drama-thriller that's not to be missed."
Anne Hathaway's sheer dress moments
As a fashion writer, I've been tracing Anne's history with the naked dress trend and this isn't the first time the actress has donned a barely-there gown. In February 2023, she attended the Berlin Film Festival in a see-through black dress.

The garment was styled with black opera-length gloves and matching heels.
Anne's dark locks were swept back into an elegant updo that showed off her diamond drop earrings. The star's makeup was left natural and radiant with a glowing base and rosy cheek.
