  • The 2025 ESPY Awards were hosted on Wednesday night in Los Angeles.
  • Simone Biles and Lindsey Vonn impressed with their standout fashion on the red carpet.
  • Other athletes like Russell Wilson made small fashion mistakes.

Fashion at the 2025 ESPY Awards was mostly a slam dunk.

Simone Biles, Ilona Maher, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, and other athletes stunned in designer looks on the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

There were a few noticeable style misses, too, from underwhelming suits to ill-fitting dresses.

Here's a look at the best and worst looks of the night.

Olympic gymnast Suni Lee shimmered in gold.

Her form-fitting dress was sleeveless, made from tan mesh, and decorated from top to bottom with gold leaf appliqués.

It hugged her body and complemented the glamour of her wavy black hairstyle. Lee completed the look with gold sandals and delicate jewelry.

Jordan Chiles, another US gymnast, wore a metallic gown that missed the mark.

Cong Tri designed her salmon-pink minidress. It was strapless and had a circle skirt that sat above her knees.

Though its shiny color worked for the Olympic gymnast, the top half of the dress awkwardly bunched at the waist. It also might have looked better without its two side cutouts.

NBA star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander looked sharp in a gray suit.

His four-piece Ferragamo ensemble included striped trousers, a double-breasted jacket, a longer overcoat, and a white button-up top.

The suit's understated pattern was classic, while its slightly oversize shape created a modern edge.

Gilgeous-Alexander also accessorized to perfection with gold earrings and a thick statement watch.

There were two pieces of Russell Wilson's outfit that should've been changed.

The NFL quarterback arrived at the awards event in black trousers, a silk top, and a blue-velvet blazer.

The latter piece would have worked great for a winter event, but looked out of place at the summer ceremony.

He also sported sunglasses on the red carpet, which hid his face and didn't add any extra flair to the outfit.

You couldn't miss Simone Biles as she sparkled her way down the red carpet

She wore a custom Athleta gown designed by Zac Posen, which was covered in sequins and sparkled in the light.

It had short sleeves, a square neckline, a form-fitting bodice, and a floor-length skirt with a short train. She wore it with silver jewelry and her hair styled in waves.

Lindsey Vonn made a daring fashion move, and it paid off.

Vonn glowed on the ESPY Awards red carpet. Her smoky makeup complemented her wind-swept hair, and her gold jewelry matched her Rolex Daytona watch.

It was the Olympic ski racer's choice of dress, though, that really stood out. The plum-colored piece was strapless with a hip-high slit that revealed her black underwear.

Ilona Maher also had a strong fashion moment in a skin-baring dress.

Her sleeveless black gown had a plunging neckline, waist cutouts, and a backless bodice.

It was sleek, strong, and accessorized simply with delicate gold jewelry. The rugby athlete also carried a black leather bag from Adidas.

Alex Morgan wore a silver gown that had potential but needed tweaks.

The soccer star walked the red carpet in a long gown with a silver, sequin-encrusted bodice and a black satin skirt.

Its strapless design and V-shaped neckline worked for Morgan, but the dress needed tailoring. Its top was scrunched at her waist, and its skirt was an awkward length.
