Hailey Bieber couldn’t sit in her corseted Schiaparelli couture gown at Academy Museum Gala

Hailey Bieber is committed to the look.

Wearing a corseted look from Schiaparelli Couture at this past weekend’s Academy Museum Gala, Bieber stunned on the blue carpet as paparazzi snapped her photo.

Once inside, however, it was a different story.

While Bieber looked like the picture of high fashion while standing upright, sitting down proved to be a challenge. The design’s extreme corseting was less than forgiving, causing the model to awkwardly recline once inside.

The Rhode founder shared a collection of photos on Instagram after the event, including one showing her leaning against the banquette at dinner, unable to properly sit down at the table while dinner was served.

The dress was crafted of brown silk moire, sculpted into a cone-style bra cup and featuring an up-to-there slit that was accented by a crystal fastening. Around her waist, sculpted into an exaggerated hourglass silhouette was a nude-toned, boned corset crafted of the same silk moire.

The look was the closing look for the design house’s Spring 2025 Couture show back in January and, according to Harper’s Bazaar, was crafted of vintage ribbons.

With celebrities like Kim Kardashian in her Margiela Couture face covering also in attendance, Bieber wasn’t the only one who committed to the look in the name of fashion.

Writing, “Always a beautiful night @academymuseum 🤎,” the look didn’t seem to deter Bieber from having a great time celebrating amongst Los Angeles’ most stylish stars.
