Tate McRae Wore Elie Saab Leather Dress at Billboard Women in Music 2026

Tate McRae knows how to keep things sharp and elevated, and her latest red carpet moment proved it again. Stepping out at the 2026 Billboard Women in Music Awards, she went for something sleek, structured, and just a little unexpected.

She wore a look from Elie Saab’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection, and it wasn’t your typical soft, romantic Saab moment. Instead, this was all about edge. The strapless dress came in a deep burgundy, almost black patent leather finish that caught the light with every move. It hugged her frame closely, creating a clean, sculpted silhouette that felt modern and confident.

The bodice was the real focus. Designed like a corset, it featured sharp lines and a subtle sweetheart neckline, with a small floral detail placed right at the center. That tiny accent softened the otherwise strong structure, giving the look a bit of contrast without taking away from its bold feel.

The midi-length skirt kept things streamlined, falling just below the knee with no extra volume or distraction. It was simple, but that’s exactly what made it work. Everything about the dress felt intentional and controlled.

She finished the look with classic black pointed-toe pumps, keeping the styling clean and letting the dress do the talking. No heavy accessories, no over-styling. Her hair was worn down in soft waves, and her makeup leaned warm and glowy, with defined eyes and a neutral lip that balanced the darker tones of the outfit.
