Barbara Palvin caused a stir with her 2025 Victoria's Secret Show appearance, opting out of the brand's usual lingerie-only getup as she wore an undies-inspired dress. The Hungarian-born star, 32, stunned on the runway back in October, showing off her killer body in a slinky satin dress with a very revealing neckline and low back. Displaying her enviable physique in a bronze look, Barbara showed off her curves with her lacy bra and G-string visible, and fans had plenty to say when a rearview snap of her was reposted on X. One user threw out a "naughty" Chris Pratt gif as they queried whether Barbara's dress even constituted "clothes."

Barbara Palvin Stuns In G-String Dress

Scroll for the photo. Exposing her backside while wearing a very cheeky thong, Barbara put her booty on display, but she kept her vibe tasteful while modeling a sleek, body-hugging maxi dress in a copper shade of brown.

The Victoria's Secret Angel, who signed with the lingerie giant in 2019, also showed off her muscular back in her rippling dress, going low-cut at the front to show off a plunging, lacy bra with a balconette finish.

Showcasing her sheer bra's back straps via her backless look, Barbara rocked opera gloves for sleeves, plus wing-like detailing on her back, with the latter giving a nod to the iconic VS Wings. The blue-eyed beauty also dazzled with a full face of makeup, sporting her glossy locks down for her high-profile appearance.

"Elegant," one fan replied. "Stunning... but clothes?" another jokingly asked.

Leggy In Her Braless Angel Wings Minidress

Barbara Palvin donned two looks for this year's VS Show, with the above one offering a leg show. Slipping her curves into a structured, silvery-gray minidress with sparkly accents and built-in wings, the Armani Beauty promo face strutted her stuff on the runway, flaunting her long legs and slender waist while ditching the bra.

"When I did shows, my first two seasons were really good, but then it started to not work out because I was considered short, and I started to feel that modeling was not for me. I almost gave up," Palvin told LUXUO, adding: "So, what I’m saying is, don’t give up, even when you don’t get a job straightaway because there will be ups and downs, and that’s normal." Barbara isn't alone. Fellow model Kate Upton was encouraged to abandon modeling while being told she was too fat for the industry.

In this promo shot, Barbara Palvin showed off her hourglass waistline and cleavage while in a plunging pink one-piece as she plugged Victoria's Secret. Going braless and lacy with a busty neckline, the wife to actor Dylan Sprouse wore barely any makeup, knocking the camera dead anyway as she showed off her world-famous beauty.
