Olivia Rodrigo is just coming off a global tour and the premiere of her Netflix tour movie, but that doesn’t mean her schedule is slowing down. While we’d be in sweats 24/7 after travelling the world and doing 95 shows, Rodrigo still has to-dos on her schedule and has to dress the part.
The star is keeping busy even while off the road, and when she stopped by The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, we couldn’t help but notice something really different — and really cool — about her dress. Spoiler alert: It’s basically like a whole bunch of grommeted “belts” tied together in one bright red mini style.

While appearing on the talk show, Rodrigo donned the strappy red mini dress from Belgian designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s spring-summer 2025 collection. The shiny, latex-y dress was composed of strips of fabric studded with circular silver grommets, which were tied together with red string. While they’re not actually belts, the fabric strips do bear a striking resemblance to the classic pop-punk grommet belt — you know the one!
The dress had a low, sweetheart-shaped bodice and hit at mid-thigh, with the last strip hanging loose to the side for an edgier detail. Rodrigo wore it a pair of translucent wedge sandals and stuck to her signature glam, including long, loose hair, black nails, and a glossy red lip a few shades lighter than the fire-engine red of the dress. She completed the look with a black mani and a red pedi.

The Ludovic de Saint Sernin dress is an Olivia Rodrigo piece if we’ve ever seen one. Whether she’s onstage, on the red carpet, or hanging out in NYC, the star’s personal style is a little bit Gen Z and a little bit ‘90s grunge. She loves plaid, chunky boots, mini dresses, and slip dresses, and even owns a vintage dress from the ultimate ’90s It Girl, Chloe Sevigny, which she scored at the star’s closet sale. She always looks super cool, but effortlessly so, and this little red mini dress is the perfect example of her rocker-girl-goes-glam vibe.
