Social media is talking about the viral video of actor/model Barbie Ferreira attending Paris Fashion Week Autumn/Winter 2026 for Jean Paul Gaultier in this eye-catching black cut-out gown with a flowing skirt.
The look has been going viral, with fans praising the actress/model for her relaxed return to high fashion after leaving the popular HBO show Euphoria, where she played Kat Hernandez.
Ferreira announced she would not be returning to Euphoria in 2022 after the second season, amid rumors of “creative burnout” and that she was seeking opportunities that aligned with her body positivity activism.
In the video’s comments section, people discussed her transformation and what’s next in her career.
“Always figured she got less screen time in the last season of Euphoria because they wanted her to lose weight for the role and she wouldn’t do it because of her activism … and now she’s like this,” commented one user.
Another user was not impressed with Ferreira’s look, saying, “basically she went and knows what to do to lose 70 kilos and have those lame brands call her for runway shows??”
But not everyone is being negative about Ferreira’s look. “We live in a society that’s way too harsh to come at a woman who decides to conform to beauty standards forced on us, especially an actress who has to conform to an image,” commented another user.
Apparently, Ferreira is not conforming to the image that many people expect of her. “She’s basically one step away from the biggest success of her career—lost weight and is about to drop a movie with a huge cast,” commented one user.
