Keke Palmer delivered one of the evening’s most daring fashion moments at the 2026 BET Awards. She stepped onto the red carpet in a crystal-covered black gown that looked sleek from the front and even more dramatic from the back.
Keke Palmer goes backless in high-slit dress for BET Awards 2026
Take a look at Keke Palmer’s jaw-dropping backless dress that stole the BET Awards spotlight:
The actress confidently posed for photographers, showing off the gown’s striking cutouts and shimmering embellishments while keeping the rest of her styling sophisticated. Palmer opted for a floor-length black gown embellished with rows of sparkling silver crystals glittering under the lights.
The dress featured an asymmetrical one-shoulder neckline, creating a clean, modern silhouette across the front. The dress dipped into an almost completely open back, exposing nearly the entire back and sides. Palmer paired the embellished gown with pointed black pumps that complemented the monochromatic look without distracting from the dress.
