Demi Lovato turned the sidewalks outside Coperni’s Spring/Summer 2026 show into a mini–fashion moment on Monday, arriving in what lookers called a “pantsless” ensemble: a black, high-neck long-sleeve second-skin bodysuit layered over sheer Coperni cargo tights with visible mini pockets, plus a sage faux-fur wrap and pointy Saint Laurent slingbacks. Photographers captured the streamlined silhouette and the slightly theatrical layering — the kind of bold, hosiery-forward styling that’s been trending this season. (Getty Images; Just Jared; WWD).

The technical pieces mattered. The bodysuit read like a sculpting base layer, while the Coperni tights — reported by fashion outlets to retail at around $466 and featuring functional-looking cargo pockets — supplied the visual “trick” that made the outfit read intentionally incomplete (bodysuit + tights in place of trousers). Lovato completed the look with a dramatic oversized faux-fur coat tossed over her arms and patent pointed slingbacks, a combo that balanced sexiness with runway theatricality.

Context: why this felt of-the-moment
Coperni’s recent collections have kept playing with second-skin dressing and surprising uses of hosiery — from technical sheer pieces to tights that double as outerwear — and Lovato’s street-style moment neatly echoed that runway language. Fashion critics and trend pages flagged how celebrities this season are using sheer hosiery and bodysuits as full outfits rather than underpinnings, a choice that reads simultaneously modern and deliberately provocative.

Where Demi was and what else she’s been doing in Paris
Lovato’s Coperni arrival was one of several public appearances she’s made in Paris this week: she’s been photographed at other shows and at industry parties, and photographers have run galleries of her front-row turns and event outings. The visibility helps explain why a single, slightly unusual outfit — a bodysuit over cargo tights — quickly circulated across fashion feeds and celebrity sites. (Getty; Parade; Just Jared).

Fan and fashion-press reaction
Reaction online was immediate and mixed: many fans praised the boldness and applauded Lovato for leaning into skate-and-lingerie aesthetics that feel high-fashion right now, while other commentators used the look to debate tropes about “too provocative” red-carpet–adjacent dressing. Street-style photography and rapid reposts on Instagram and entertainment sites helped the moment trend across feeds within hours of the Coperni presentation. (Yahoo; Parade). Yahoo+1

What this says about celebrity styling in 2025
The outfit is a neat example of two modern impulses in celebrity dressing: 1) celebrities serving as live, moving advertising for runway ideas (wearing a house’s statement piece in public), and 2) the continued collapse of private/outerwear codes — hosiery, lingerie and dancewear are now often offered up as full outfits on the street. Stylists and footwear press also noted the shoes matter: pairing ultra-pointed Saint Laurent slingbacks with sheer tights gives the look an editorial lift and anchors the silhouette for photographers.
