Demi Lovato Goes Sculptural in Magda Butrym for GLAAD Media Awards

Demi Lovato channeled sculptural styling in a Magda Butrym mini dress at the GLAAD Media Awards red carpet on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

The “Confident” singer’s dress was crafted in stretch jersey textile, with textural fabric ruching mimicking pleating. The silhouette of the dress was form-fitting at the skirt, with a mini hemline and a cinched waist for added silhouette definition.

The bodice of the dress, however, was where structuralism came into play. The dress was crafted with a waved neckline and strapless design, with a sinuous structure.

As for the remaining elements of her look, Lovato wore sheer black tights and black heels to complete the ensemble. Accessories included jade-tone earrings, while her glam featured a slicked back bun and striking makeup details like bold brows, lined eyes and a glossy lip. Lovato’s look was curated by stylist Chris Horan, who also collaborates with “Brat” artist Charli XCX.

Worn by celebrities like Amanda Seyfried, among others, Magda Butrym’s unique designs often embrace textural play and avant-grade designs by way of structuralism. The Polish designer’s spring 2026 ready-to-wear collection, which debuted in October 2025 as part of Paris Fashion Week, took those elements a step further with the inclusion of “candy floss-like giant hats,” per Tianwei Zhang’s WWD review of the collection.

Demi Lovato’s own approach to style fluctuates between modern inspiration and classic design codes. At Clive Davis’ Pre-Grammy Gala in February, the singer showcased her proclivity for Old Hollywood style in a shimmering black sequin gown by Rodarte.

The 2026 GLAAD Media Awards honored the inclusive representation of the LGBTQIA+ community through entertainment and media. Winners included TV series like “Heated Rivalry” and “Stranger Things” and films including “Kiss of the Spider Woman.” Lovato also performed at Thursday night’s event, held at the Beverly Hilton.
