Joan Vassos, the 61-year-old star of The Golden Bachelorette, found herself falling in love — not just with her suitors, but with the stunning gowns she wore during filming. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Joan opened up about her favorite part of being on the ABC reality show: dressing up in glamorous evening wear.
A Wardrobe Fit for a Queen
Joan couldn’t contain her excitement when discussing the incredible gowns she got to wear on the show. “Oh my God, the evening gowns, I can’t even begin to tell you,” she said, reflecting on her unforgettable wardrobe experience. “There were probably 30 that I was in love with, but I only got to wear eight of them.” The collection was so extensive that it required a separate hotel room just to store all the outfits.
Daring Fashion Choices
The show’s stylist, Cary Fetman, praised Joan’s fearless attitude when it came to fashion. “Joan was not nervous about wearing anything,” Fetman shared. He revealed that Joan once wore a daring sheer crystal dress for one of the rose ceremonies and later switched up her style with a bold leather gown on another night.
Joan also stunned during a promotional photo shoot for ABC, where she donned a breathtaking gold gown. The dress featured a strapless sweetheart neckline, a voluminous A-line skirt, and plenty of sparkle. To complete the look, Joan held a gold rose and flashed a soft smile, embodying elegance and confidence.

Although fans have yet to see most of Joan’s rose ceremony outfits, she gave a sneak peek of her Night One look on Instagram. The ensemble included a sheer nude neckline, a shimmering mock neck with a bow cascading to the floor, and a crystal-embellished skirt with a tulle hem. She paired the glamorous dress with strappy heels, diamond bracelets, and an oversized crystal ring.
For her beauty look, Joan opted for dramatic long lashes, rosy cheeks, and glossy lips. Her signature blonde hair was styled in voluminous curls, with a deep side part adding to the old Hollywood glamor.
