"I wish I could tell you it's deep like that, but it's not," Goldberg told People at the event.

"If it fits and it's comfortable, I put it on,"  Goldberg added.

Siriano's fall 2025 collection, from which Goldberg’s dress was taken, was inspired by "the power of woman."

Discussing the collection, Siriano told WWD in February, "I wanted the whole beginning of the collection to feel cool and almost a bit more wearable and then it goes into my fantasy world that I love."
