Emily Ratajkowski’s daring VMAS 2026 look included a nod to boyfriend Romain Gavras

Emily Ratajkowski is the ultimate plus-one.

The 35-year-old model attended the VMAs 2026 Sunday night as a guest of boyfriend Romain Gavras, sharing pics on her Instagram wearing a daring George Troch knit dress with completely cut-out sides.

“Went to the VMAs as a @romaingavras @surkin @yunglean2001 groupie and had the best time,” she captioned the slideshow.

Putting most of her torso on display, the gown was cut from her shoulder to her low hip, hugging close to her chest and twisting in the back.

She shared a 360-degree look at the black and red gown, with one fan joking in the comment section, “I love the very subtle cutout on that dress.”

The model wore her hair tousled and in a middle part, adding a sultry vibe with a dramatic smokey eye.

Her glam also featured a subtle nod to Gavras, who have been together since before she hard-launched their relationship on Instagram in February.

In a photo shared by her nail artist, EmRata’s left middle finger was painted with the initials “RG” and her ring finger bore a symbol featured on a poster for his movie “Sacrifice.”

The director sat by her side during the musical awards show, wearing a gray button-down and black blazer, accessorizing with sunglasses and a cap with the same symbol.

She shared her pass for the show, which labeled her as “Romain Plus One” as it was Gavras was nominated for his work on Gener8ion and Yung Lean’s music video “Storm.”

Ratajkowski last appeared at the VMAs in 2023, wearing a similarly bare look that showed off her abs: a halter-style vintage Jean Paul Gaultier dress.

The couple partied the night away at Madonna’s after-party at Chateau Marmont, where they closed out their evening with Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter and more.
