A hot new bombshell entered the 2025 CFDA Awards, and it's Love Island USA star Olandria Carthen, serving head-to-toe red carpet glamour.
The former reality star made a stunning entrance in a striking custom ensemble.
On Monday, the 27-year-old arrived at the American Museum of Natural History in New York looking like a modern-day goddess in a sultry suede dress.
Designed by Brooklyn-based fashion designer Brandon Blackwood, who also accompanied her as her date, Carthen stunned the crowd with a flawless, show-stopping look in a dark brown strapless, body-hugging, floor-length dress that perfectly complemented both her physique and her complexion.

Capping off the outfit, she completed the look with understated accessories featuring a pair of circular diamond earrings.
As for her glam, she went full bombshell with smoky eye makeup and voluminous curls that redefined sexy.

“She just dethroned all her other red carpet looks,” one wrote.
“Some people just have it and she’s one of them,” a commenter said.
Fans couldn't stop raving about her red carpet look, calling it a no-notes masterpiece.
“This look is a 15/10, I'm sorry- the chocolate moment is giving!! Gorgeous dress, banging Hollywood bob, body absolutely tea and the face ECONOMY?!?” a user on X said.
“I usually have a lot to say but I’m currently speechless because of this beautiful woman I have the pleasure of looking at rn brb,” another added.
Others even playfully commented that the Met Gala better take note because she’s bound to serve looks on that carpet, too.
“The way Olandria and her team is moving my sis will be at that Met Gala 2026,” a fan noted.
Another echoed the same sentiment, adding, “I’ve said it once. I’ll say it again. This is unreal. The Met is not far off now. And I’m not just saying this.”
Carthen joined the seventh season of the reality dating show but was eliminated during the Casa Amor twist. However, she later continued her journey after getting the opportunity to return to the villa with Nic Vansteenberghe and finished as the runner-up.
