- Lauren Sánchez has been wearing daring outfits since the start of her career as a TV news anchor.
- But her fashion has gotten even bolder while in a relationship with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.
When Lauren Sánchez attends an event, she's tough to miss.
For one thing, the Emmy-award-winning news anchor usually attends red carpets and fundraising dinners alongside her billionaire fiancé Jeff Bezos. Together, they're often the it-couple at events.
But she's also on her way to becoming a fashion force all on her own.
In April, Sánchez first caught major style attention when she wore a semi-sheer corset gown to attend a White House state dinner. The daring dress was divisive and cemented her spot in the world of fashion discourse.
She then attended her first Met Gala this year and was said to have been styled in part by Anna Wintour herself.
Here's a look at her boldest style moments, from see-through pieces to form-fitting gowns.
Lauren Sánchez first experimented with daring fashion in 2004.

She attended the Shalom Foundation Gala that year wearing a strapless brown dress that hugged her body and reached the floor.
It was covered from top to bottom in beaded florals and was held together across its open back with extremely thin strings — one of which also crossed her shoulder like a strap.
She donned a visible corset years later when she attended the 2010 American Music Awards.

She walked the red carpet in a black minidress, which was strapless, lined with mesh, and cinched at the waist with a plethora of small strings.
Sánchez wore the bold garment with strappy sandals and a statement ring.
But her fashion really took a daring turn when she and Jeff Bezos became red-carpet official.

The couple walked their first red carpet together in coordinated outfits featuring bold prints. But Sánchez's red and black gown stood out for a few other reasons, too.
The sequined piece had a plunging neckline that reached her navel, sheer long sleeves decorated with black beads, and a thigh-high slit.
For the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscars party, Sánchez tried the "no pants" look.

She walked the blue carpet alongside Bezos in a sequined, off-the-shoulder gown from Elie Saab. It was crafted with a black leotard and sheer overlay.
Aside from thin black stripes, the latter piece was sheer, showing her legs and see-through sandals.
The dress was also designed with a low, V-shaped neckline, adding another daring element to the look.
She's never afraid to rock vibrant colors.

At Kering's 2023 Caring For Women dinner, Sánchez posed for photographers in a fluorescent yellow gown.
The high-neck dress was form-fitting up top, floor-length at the bottom, and covered entirely in sequins.
Sánchez wore her most daring look to date at a Dolce & Gabbana party in January.

She was photographed walking with Bezos to the Milan party, but her black dress captured all the attention.
The form-fitting piece was strapless with a corset top and crafted entirely from lace — meaning it was also see-through and revealed her black underwear.
She wore the daring dress with black sandals, a rosette shawl, sunglasses, and a long silver necklace.
She celebrated the Oscars months later in an eye-catching dress that matched the Vanity Fair red carpet.

Lever Couture designed her red dress with a deep neckline, puffy tulle sleeves, a corset bodice, and a semi-sheer skirt.
The party outfit was as glamorous as it was bold, thanks to Sánchez's accessories. She wore tan pumps, diamond earrings, and a statement, sparkling necklace.
Some of her boldest looks have been controversial — like the corset dress Sánchez wore to the White House this year.

Sánchez and Bezos were invited to the White House for a state dinner in honor of Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
But while Bezos wore a classic tuxedo, his fiancée took a much bolder approach.
Sánchez, styled by Kelly Johnson, wore a red gown with a satin skirt and see-through corset top. The latter piece had a low neckline, off-the-shoulder sleeves, and lace detailing.
Many questioned whether the daring dress was appropriate in the White House setting, but others — including celebrities like Chrissy Teigen — staunchly defended her character and outfit choice.
She wore yet another lace corset piece to attend a pre-Met Gala party.

Sánchez made her Met Gala debut this year with much fanfare. According to fashion journalist and author Amy Odell, Anna Wintour helped pick the Oscar de la Renta gown Sánchez wore, and it was the first time Bezos attended with a date in over a decade.
But the couple also attended a celebratory dinner beforehand and an after-party following the ball.
For the former event, Sánchez sported a black minidress that was strapless and made from see-through lace. It also had a corset bodice that was cinched at the waist.
