Leni Klum Debuts Gothic Romance at Venice Film Festival 2025

The dress, reportedly by Intimissimi, is a masterclass in architectural seduction. A structured bodice with sheer paneling and a plunging sweetheart neckline anchors the look, while the fitted silhouette flares just enough to suggest movement without sacrificing precision. It’s a gown that understands restraint—and how to weaponize it.

Accessories were anything but shy. Leni’s statement necklace, a cascade of turquoise stones set in silver, added a jolt of color that felt almost rebellious against the monochrome palette. Matching earrings echoed the motif, framing her face with cool-toned drama. And yes, the flip-flop sandals—strappy, black, and unapologetically casual—were a curveball. But in the context of her walk alongside Heidi, they read as a wink, not a misstep.

For those tracking the evolution of red carpet fashion, Leni Klum’s Venice moment is a reminder that glamour doesn’t have to be loud—it just has to be smart.
