Dakota Johnson was spotted showcasing her edgy style in an all-black ensemble while out and about in New York City ahead of the press tour for her latest film, Materialists.

Materialists, directed by Celine Song, is a modern-day romance film that follows New York City matchmaker Lucy, who is torn between her wealthy, perfect match, Harry (Pedro Pascal), and her imperfect ex-boyfriend, John (Chris Evans). It’s scheduled to be released on June 13.

Johnson tends to lean towards the carefree boho side of fashion, but she doesn’t shy away from experimenting with edgy, modern looks, which always work.

Wearing Balenciaga: Bodysuit, Leather Coat, and Black Denim

While departing her NYC hotel, Dakota commanded attention in a sheer black bodysuit, jeans, and a leather coat ensemble. The combination is not exactly what I’d reach for in hot summer weather, but Dakota looked chic and stunning.

All eyes were on Dakota Johnson as she stepped out in the Big Apple, looking slick in a heavy all-black look!

She wore a $405 black jersey Balenciaga bodysuit that clings to her figure like a second skin, showing just enough flesh to keep it sexy and alluring. The plunging V-neckline is definitely a highlight, as it draws attention to her decolletage, adding a flirtatious touch.

Tucking the bodysuit into a pair of black-washed denim jeans from Balenciaga’s Fall 2025 collection further accentuates her curves, and the flared bottom and raw hem enhance the look’s edgy vibe.

Combining the bodysuit and jeans gives off a chic and effortless vibe. But adding the black leather coat seems a bit overkill, given the summer heat. While it adds sleekness and chicness, the heat makes it quite uncomfortable to wear.

Luxury Accessories: Jewelry, Sunglasses & The Row Clutch

Dakota knows how to rock the edgy, chic look, and her black and gold accessories perfectly complement it. They add a touch of refinement and sophistication to the ensemble, and I particularly like how her gold jewelry contrasts with the black bodysuit!

She wore a few rings and two Yvonne Leon Paire De Creoles earrings: one in 9kt yellow and white gold with 1.10ct. gray diamonds and the other in 9kt gold with 0.48ct. gray diamonds.

Dakota also wore the Oliver Peoples x Khaite 1951C cat’s eye sunglasses ($589 at FWRD), which added extra star power to her ensemble!

There’s no denying she nailed the chic, edgy look! Her statement pieces are on point, such as a The Row “Mira” leather clutch ($2,600 at FWRD), which adds a sense of understated luxury, and Khaite “Colt” shoes ($990 at Mytheresa), which offer a modern, contemporary touch.
