Zoe Saldaña Looks Radiant in a Sheer Brown Lace Halterneck Gown in Year-End Video

Zoe Saldaña showcased a striking caramel brown lace dress in an end-of-year recap video shared on December 30, 2025. The actress, known for her role in Emilia Pérez, posed elegantly on a bed, wearing a completely sheer halterneck gown.

The video featured some of Saldaña’s standout fashion moments from her press tour for Avatar: Fire and Ash, reflecting a year filled with notable achievements, including accolades from the Oscars, Golden Globes, and BAFTAs. Alongside her professional success, she also cherished quality time with her husband and three children.

In the video, Saldaña offered a fresh take on the naked dress, showcasing a form-fitting warm brown lace design. The opening scene captured her seated on a white bed, gazing at a gold trophy and a notecard. Her accessory choices included long chandelier earrings that complemented her ruffled mock neckline. Her sleek middle-parted bun accentuated the gown’s back design, while smoky eyeshadow and sculpted cheeks rounded out her elegant look.

"As the voiceover mused, ‘When you don’t realize you’re in the moment until it’s a memory,’ Saldaña smiled at the trophy and pulled it close. The montage that followed highlighted some of her most memorable moments from the year, emphasizing her iconic style.

Throughout 2025, Saldaña pushed sartorial boundaries with a variety of standout outfits, including a sheer ruffled boho gown and a dramatic Balmain corset gown adorned with a spectacular diamond ring valued at $150,000. In her video, she expressed her gratitude for the year, stating, “And what a beautiful year it was,” accompanied by a gold star emoji.
