Megyn Kelly Critiques Sydney Sweeney’s Sheer Silver Dress: ‘I Object’
In a recent episode of her show, Megyn Kelly voiced strong criticism of Sydney Sweeney’s striking silver dress, which gained significant attention online.
“I have to express my disapproval,” the 54-year-old commentator remarked on Thursday. “The dress is completely see-through.”
Kelly noted that the Christian Cowan gown, worn by Sweeney at Variety’s Power of Women event, left little to the imagination. She mentioned, “I can see her whole chest in this outfit.”
Kelly did not hold back in voicing her disagreement with the dress. WireImageWhile Kelly acknowledged Sweeney’s physical attributes as “enormous” and “spectacular,” she compared the actress’s approach to Kim Kardashian, suggesting that such transparency detracts from allure.
“She overshares, which takes away from that enticing mystery,” Kelly explained. Despite her criticism, she emphasized her admiration for Sweeney as an artist.

“She trusted the wrong person, and now the whole world has seen it,” she continued, labeling the gown as a “rare misstep.”
