Simone Biles gave Lady Liberty a run for her money.

Styled by Marc Desir, the Olympian looked statuesque in an over-the-top champagne gown at the 2026 ESPYs in New York City on Wednesday, July 15.

Her dress had a high-low effect that accentuated her legs and gave her matching strappy heels their own moment. She paired the look with a statement necklace to make the ensemble pop.

Biles, 29, wore soft glam makeup and her hair was styled in flowy curls. She walked the red carpet alongside her husband, NFL player Jonathan Owens, who donned an all-brown suit, complementing his wife's getup.

Biles served as one of the presenters at the annual sports-focused award ceremony, hosted this year by Marcello Hernandez. The legendary gymnast changed into a black, deep-plunge body-hugging dress with gold-crusted embellishments. She announced that the New York Knicks won the ESPY for Best Team.

Here's a look at Simone Biles' ensembles at the 2026 ESPYs.
