Well, she's currently gaining attention for the optical illusion 3D top she wore to W magazine's Best Performances Party last weekend.

Tracee rocked a bright red strapless top, which stood at a distance from her body. At first glance, it almost looked like a censor to cover her seemingly bare chest, but nope!

Tracee paired it with matching red pants, a clutch, and red peep-toe heels with a burgundy blazer thrown over her shoulders.

The top and bottoms are from Sportmax's Spring–Summer 2025 collection, which features sculptural pieces with an elegant, modern twist. You might remember seeing Tracee in the brand before — specifically at last year's Primetime Emmy Awards, where she wore this white sculpted top with a matching skirt.
