Sanchez was previously seen with the same outfit on Dec. 5, when she shared a mirror selfie on Instagram showing her look. “Winter white,” she captioned. Kelly Johnson styled her at the occasion.

Sanchez’s outfit quickly went viral on social media due to its daring aesthetic compared to other conservative looks seen at the inauguration.

The peekaboo bra trend had a major moment in 2023 on the runway and on red carpets, with designers like Elie Saab and Miu Miu embracing the style.

Since the beginning of her relationship with Bezos, Sanchez has been stepping on the red carpet more often. In 2024, she was seen in dresses by Pucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Staud, Oscar de la Renta and Balenciaga.
