A Daring 2015 VMAs Moment: Holland Roden’s Sheer Vivienne Tam Dress
Then 28 years old and starring on Teen Wolf, Roden chose a daring fashion moment, stepping out in a floral-embroidered sheer mesh dress from Vivienne Tam’s Spring 2015 collection—a look that sparked plenty of conversation at the time for its bold, fully see-through construction.
She styled her dress with a Lee Savage clutch, gold black diamond Anne Sisteron triangle stud earrings, and a Monica Vinader “Diva” mini circle ring.

Footwear Highlights of the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards
She completed her look with a pair of Stuart Weitzman “Nudist” sandals, a red-carpet favorite that became one of the defining minimalist heels of the mid-2010s.
Celebrities delivered some unforgettable style moments at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards, and several have since become standout features on Your Next Shoes. Karlie Kloss embraced sleek minimalism in a minimalist orange Louis Vuitton column dress paired with flat gold Giuseppe Zanotti sandals — a look that perfectly captured her affinity for clean silhouettes and metallic accents.
Hailee Steinfeld opted for bold structure in a white jumpsuit styled with Charlotte Olympia “Octavia” platform heels, a sculptural choice that highlighted her love of statement footwear. Meanwhile, Selena Gomez kept things understated in a dark, body-skimming Calvin Klein gown finished with minimalist black heels — a vampy, quietly elegant moment on the VMAs carpet.
Together with Holland Roden’s daring Vivienne Tam sheer mesh dress and her Stuart Weitzman “Nudist” sandals, these appearances define the late-2010s red-carpet aesthetic: sheer textures, streamlined silhouettes, and the rise of barely-there heels as a celebrity staple.
