Madison Bailey, best known for her breakout role as Kiara Carrera in the Netflix series Outer Banks, made a bold fashion statement at Variety’s Power of Young Hollywood celebration—an event honoring cover stars Sydney Sweeney, Noah Schnapp, and Steve Lacy.

The 24-year-old actress embraced a high-glam runway aesthetic in a coordinated three-piece animal-print ensemble from the Michael Kors Fall 2023 collection, arriving at NeueHouse Los Angeles on a Thursday evening.

Her head-to-toe look featured a deep-cut leopard-print shirt styled with an exaggerated V-neckline, tucked into a figure-hugging micro mini skirt. This silhouette continues to dominate red carpet trends.

Madison Bailey Elevates Leopard Print With Statement Belt and Dolce & Gabbana Mesh Boots

Looking straight off the runway, Madison styled her striking look with a broad, hip-hugging belt accented with a large silver metal clasp. She then layered the exquisite pairing underneath a matching leopard-print Chesterfield coat, which she stylishly draped over her shoulders.

A pair of sheer mesh black boots, most likely the Dolce & Gabbana “Lollo” created in collaboration with Kim Kardashian, added a few inches to her 5’8” height.

Available for $895 at Farfetch, these stretch tulle boots have a DG logo appliqué on the rear and a 4-inch heel.

Madison Bailey on Reaching Celebrity Status

Her breakthrough performance as Kiara Carrera, a wealthy “athletic hippy chick with a socialist streak,” in Outer Banks propelled her to popularity. It cemented her place as a household name in the entertainment industry.

Despite earning celebrity status, Madison Bailey hasn’t allowed fame to change who she is or how she thinks.

In an interview with Elle, Bailey admitted that she sometimes loses sight of the fact that she is a “somebody” when people recognize her while she’s out doing grocery shopping in sweats.

She also spoke about using social media as a form of journaling to connect with her followers and share intimate details about her life, rather than just sharing her glamorous moments.

“Sometimes I get nervous before I share something, but there’s so much that overpowers my nerves. Knowing that I am setting an example overrides my discomfort.”
