Darren Criss came to the 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards ready to shut down the red carpet.
And he might have done just that.
The actor, 37, showed up to the fashionable event wearing a fuchsia tulle skirt with flower detail and a cropped black tuxedo jacket — and not much else. He left his chest and abs on display and posed for photos with designer Christian Siriano, who designed his outfit for the evening.

The 2024 CFDA Fashion Awards celebrate the best in the American Fashion Industry. This year’s ceremony is being hosted by Cynthia Erivo, who walked the red carpet in a very Elphaba-inspired hooded black gown.
Erykah Badu is being honored with the Fashion Icon Award, Michael Kors is receiving the Positive Change Award and Daniel Roseberry is being recognized as International Designer of the Year. Presenters include Anna Wintour, Blake Lively, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, Molly Ringwald, Storm Reid and Paris Hilton.
Notable attendees at this year’s star-studded event include Kylie Jenner, Kelsea Ballerini, Katie Holmes, Suni Lee, Addison Rae and Teyana Taylor. Among the designers present in addition to Siriano are Tommy Hilfiger, Rebecca Minkoff and Zac Posen.:max_bytes(150000):strip_icc():focal(736x145:738x147):format(webp)/JC-Chasez-Darren-Criss-090924-7bff1418a0774115a3b58cb6eea8b7ef.jpg)
Criss, who is currently starring in Maybe Happy Ending on Broadway, has been known to push the boundaries with his style, wearing daring patterns and bright colors, including this black and white polka-dot shirt he rocked at Elsie Fest in September that featured red and white trim and floral detailing.
He’s also worn plenty of brightly colored and patterned suits for events, even wearing a golden suit for Siriano’s most recent Fashion Week presentation. This one also featured a cropped jacket that he wore with no shirt underneath, again showing off his toned abs and plenty of skin. Much like at the CFDA Fashion Awards, Criss also rocked a chain necklace for an accessory.
