Dakota Johnson delivered a blunt response when asked about her penchant for donning revealing ensembles on red carpets. The 36-year-old actress, who is starring in the upcoming 2026 film Verity, was recently interviewed by Vogue Germany about her fashion choices and the upcoming movie. The Madame Web protagonist is known for her candid demeanor in interviews, having previously admitted to not watching the failed Marvel project and describing her brief stint on The Office as the worst time of her life. Her interview with Ellen DeGeneres went viral for its awkwardness, dubbed "birthday gate," and her reputation for candor only grew with her latest answer when questioned about the perceived "sexy" factor of a dress designed to showcase her figure.
Those who fret over Dakota's dresses being too revealing are likely the same individuals who whine about their steaks being too juicy or their lobsters too buttery. But she's made it clear that she's not interested in their opinions. "I really don't care," she said. "I've been able to wear some of the most beautiful dresses, and I feel beautiful in them, so I wear them."
The 50 Shades of Grey actress added, "Sometimes those dresses look good on me. But there are also some we've tried on that didn't look good at all. It depends on the shape, the finish, the color, and everything else. So if I find a beautiful dress that I feel comfortable in, of course I want to wear it! And it's fun to wear a sexy dress."
Johnson has sported Gucci gowns and fitted lace dresses, often choosing to go au naturel underneath. She credits her mother Melanie Griffith for fostering a strong body image from a young age. "My mum was just very open about the topic of bodies," she said. "She taught us how to take care of our bodies and love them, and that our bodies are beautiful. And I think that's something really important for a young girl because we're constantly told that we're not good enough."
To be fair to the Splitsville star, her dress choices are far more tasteful than those of Kanye West's ex-wife Bianca Censori earlier this year.
