Pop sensation Olivia Rodrigo turned heads at the Grammys afterparty on Sunday night, stepping out in a daring sheer lace mini-dress that revealed her underwear. The 22-year-old singer's bold fashion choice comes just two months after her split from actor boyfriend Louis Partridge, marking her first major public appearance since the end of their two-year romance.
A Daring Fashion Statement
The songstress wore a nude-coloured lingerie-style dress adorned with intricate crochet flowers, which was notably short in length. She completed the ensemble with baby pink heels and a matching Fendi bag, creating a cohesive and eye-catching look that captured significant attention at the star-studded event.
Relationship Timeline and Recent Split
Rodrigo and Partridge were first linked in October 2023 when spotted together in London. Their relationship blossomed over the following months, with the House of Guinness actor supporting Rodrigo at Z100's Jingle Ball and both attending an SNL afterparty in late 2023. The couple made several public appearances together throughout 2024 and 2025, including at the Grammy Awards, Vanity Fair Oscars bash, Wimbledon, and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction ceremony.
In September 2025, Partridge spoke warmly about their relationship to Esquire UK, stating: "I just have no doubt that we're both in a relationship for the right reason. It's nice to know that we can go to things together, and it's not the maddest thing in the world." He also commented on their decision to maintain privacy despite public moments like their Wimbledon PDA.
Emotional Aftermath
Last December, reports emerged that the couple had ended their relationship several weeks earlier. A source told The Sun: "They made such a lovely couple so people who know them were shocked when they heard. It's not been the easiest few weeks for them and they decided it's better to be apart for now."
The insider added that Rodrigo was emotional while discussing the split with friends at Lily Allen's Christmas bash in London, saying: "Olivia was at Lily's party and emotional when she was talking about it. Her friends have rallied around her but it's just been pretty rough. It's really sad right now."
