The dress featured a ruched bodice and an asymmetrical skirt that moved fluidly with each step. It was both sculptural and soft. The fitted, textured bodice created structure through precise ruching, while the skirt opened into an asymmetrical hemline that added movement and airiness. As seen in footage shared by a fan account on She completed the look with a navy blue dress and neutral pointed-toe heels, keeping the silhouette in mind.
Ratajkowski’s appearance on the runway was also on brand Spring/Summer 2026 Theme. Tory Burch described the collection as an exploration of the complexity of women and the many facets of their style. It balanced femininity and power, precision and imperfection. Ratajkowski, who is known for confidently pursuing fashion and business, represents a modern, multifaceted woman, which made her a perfect choice for the show beyond just being a seasoned model.
The dress itself embodied the message of the collection. Its clean halter structure suggested control and intention, while the fluid skirt and long strap introduced suppleness and movement. The contrast reflected Tory Burch’s continued reinterpretation of clothing with romance, craftsmanship and minimal drama.
Pairing the design at the neck with a single strap, the look served as a visual expression of strength combined with beauty. On the NYFW runway, Ratajkowski presented a moment that captured the spirit of the collection.
