At the 36th Annual GLAAD Media Awards, Doechii made her commitment to fashion by her choice of attire, which was groundbreaking and defiant. Held at The Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on March 27, 2025, the event brought together a diverse mix of cultural figures and pioneers.
However, it was Doechii's deconstructed Maison Margiela ensemble that commanded attention. On an evening dedicated to celebrating the craft of creative presentation and the power of representation, her appearance was a categorical assertion of modern fashion.
Doechii's outfit for the GLAAD Media Awards 2025
Doechii's look was ripped straight from Maison Margiela's Spring 2024 collection, which is known for pushing boundaries with its conceptual approach to design. At the heart of her ensemble was that show-stopping off-the-shoulder top, which, like a work in progress, showcased those beautiful asymmetrical cuts and raw stitching.
That was the point: to turn traditional silhouettes on their head by incorporating those raw, deconstructed elements that just don't play by the conventional red carpet rules.
Paired with that edgy top was a deconstructed midi skirt with tiered, raw-edged layers. The "unfinished" beauty of that design was visible through its haphazard stitching and unexpected cutouts. The thing that took the look to the next level was her well-matched accessories that complimented her outfit.
She ditched the norm by wearing a measuring tape around her neck as a statement necklace, which is a nod to the fashion house's experimental spirit. And on her wrist, a pin cushion added an unexpected twist to her outfit.
No Maison Margiela look is complete without that brand's signature footwear, and Doechii's night-out look was no exception. She chose the Maison Margiela Tabi "bourgeoise spectator pumps" – shoes that are as polarizing as they are iconic.
Those Tabi shoes, with their split-toe design, balanced out the deconstructed elements of her outfit with a structured silhouette and some seriously striking black-and-white detailing.
Her stylist, Sam Woolf, carefully crafted the rest of her look to let those natural features shine. Minimal makeup and librarian-style glasses gave the whole ensemble an intellectual, almost academic feel. Even her nail art was given just as much attention as the rest of the outfit – with modern designs that alluded to the deconstructed theme.
Doechii's appearance at the GLAAD Media Awards was a masterclass in artistic expression and in breaking the rules. That's exactly what you'd expect from an artist who makes a career out of pushing boundaries. The GLAAD Media Awards, which celebrate the creators who champion LGBTQ+ representation, gave her the perfect stage to do just that.

In fact, it was the beauty of its imperfections that really shone through. Her style isn't just about self-expression; it's about challenging what we think fashion should be. Her look at the GLAAD Media Awards set a new standard for just how far that can go.
