Emily Ratajkowski’s Evening Outfit Formula Is So Easy To Pull Off

by Amy Lee

We can all agree Emily Ratajkowski’s got sexy down to a science, but, over the years, the model and actress has proven she’s also quite the sartorial chameleon. Although never one to shy away from showing some skin (thigh-high slits and plunging necklines are her looks of choice for the red carpet), she will often surprise us with unexpected ensembles ranging from menswear-inspired suits to ultra-feminine maxis. Most recently, the brunette bombshell donned a cutout asymmetrical maxi dress for a Frye event in New York City. While such frocks would oft be finished off with a sexy barely-there heel, Emily did the unexpected and paired it with tall leather boots—bringing the look down to earth for an I’m-not-trying-too-hard vibe. See the complete ensemble ahead (and score a similar matching set) along with more of her unforgettable outfits.
