Ashley Graham took a utilitarian approach to red-carpet dressing while attending the Time 100 Gala in New York City on Wednesday.
The model arrived in a form-fitting black gown with toggle drawstrings adorning her shoulders. The dress also featured wide slits around her neckline, a side train and long pieces of fabric that cascaded to the floor. Graham usually works with stylist Emily Evans on her outfits.
