Heidi Klum at 52 Wows in a See-Through Gown on the Oscars 2026 Red Carpet
Heidi Klum turned heads at the 98th Academy Awards on Sunday, showing why she has been a red carpet favorite for decades. The 52-year-old supermodel arrived at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles wearing a custom Chrome Hearts gown that made a statement.
The strapless, corseted dress was made from sheer pale fabric and decorated with pearls and crystals, giving it a soft, glowing look that moved beautifully as she walked. She paired the gown with a layered diamond and pearl necklace and a small silver cross pendant.
Her long blonde hair fell in soft waves, and her makeup kept things neutral and glowing. Klum’s look highlighted the confidence and style that have kept her at the top of fashion for over thirty years.

This glamorous appearance came just days after Klum opened up in a cover story for Glamour Germany about her ADHD diagnosis. She told the magazine, “I see ADHD as something positive because it allows me to do more things at once.
It’s my superpower.” She explained that her high energy helps her handle many roles at once, from judging on TV to producing large projects. Klum continues to stay busy with her work in the media. She is preparing for the 22nd season of Project Runway, which will premiere this year on Disney platforms.
She will return as a judge alongside Nina Garcia and Law Roach, with Christian Siriano as mentor. She also remains a judge on America’s Got Talent, where she has been for eleven seasons, and continues to lead Germany’s Next Topmodel.
Her ability to handle all these roles while speaking openly about her life and empowering other women shows why she is still one of the most recognized and respected figures in entertainment.
