The Most Noteworthy Skirts and Dresses of the 2025 ESPYs

Zuri Hall

I think Zuri almost always looks great...and she also looks great here.

Suni Lee

Whereas sometimes Suni's looks are a bit hit or miss -- but this is a total hit.

Chiney Ogwumike

I know I'm a magpie, but I LOVE this dress. I don't even know if she needed the jewelry; it's so good on its own.

MJ Acosta

Also shiny and fabulous -- this is a STRONG run of looks.

Jonathan Owens and Simone Biles

I put this in the dresses post because I am always here to celebrate Simone, even if his outfit is perhaps arguably more...noteworthy. She looks great, if maybe a little squashy at the top (this was less aggressive in other photos). He is showing a lot of chest!!! That is whatever is past a Vee in terms of Deep Vee.

Flau'jae Johnson

I will never be able to see this fabric without thinking about the ANTM challenge where they had to be sexy fish caught in nets. I DO think Tyra would have SOME notes but she would make it through this round!

Kiki Iriafen

I love her necklace. My note here is, let's lose the slit in the shirt and make this a mini skirt. So many of these basketball players would look cute dressed like Kristen Stewart circa Twilight -- SHORT and SPARKLY.

Rae Burrell

I don't totally know what's happening here, but it's artsy and cool. I feel like she owns a ceramics collective in Santa Fe. (She actually plays for my Los Angeles Sparks!)

Jordan Chiles

I would have totally signed off on this without the side cut-outs.

Ilona Maher

I love Ilona and my note here is that I wish her skirt started where that waist belt is, because the structure of this dress sort of looks like she was forced to make a top out of a necktie and a belt. While we are here: As always, her red lip is terrific.

Gabby Thomas

I keep trying to make everyone wear a mini-skirt, but I think THIS dress needs to be a little longer to have the right effect. (I mean, she's gorgeous regardless, but I think the feathered hem needs to be farther from the business around the neck, because it feels a bit busy.)

Sloane Stephens

I don't have any notes on the length here! I love Sloane, and she accepted the Humanitarian Award.

Jessica Long

This is great on her! She is an INSANELY ACCOMPLISHED swimmer.

Whitney Cummings

I do not even know how to respond to this.

Andre Levrone and Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone

Here we have two really good-looking people being very good looking. The cut of this dress is so pretty on her.

Alison Brie

Nothing says, I'M PROMOTING A NEW PROJECT like Alison Brie -- in admittedly a great color -- popping up at the ESPYs.

Lindsey Vonn

YES that's a bejeweled bikini bottom under there. Sometimes a little bit of the old Lindsey Vonn peeks back out.

Chari Hawkins

When else should you wear the sneakers, after all?
