The Irwin family turned heads on Wednesday night as they attended Robert Irwin’s debut on Dancing With The Stars in the US — but it wasn’t just Robert who impressed. Matriarch Terri Irwin stunned fans by trading her signature khakis for a dazzling red midi dress, while Bindi Irwin made a striking statement in a fitted black gown with a daring low-cut neckline.
Terri, 61, looked decades younger in the ensemble by Leo Lin, complete with a feminine lily print and soft waves in her hair. A nude lip and smoky eye completed her polished look, drawing praise from fans who marveled at her transformation.
Bindi, 27, matched her mother’s glamour, embracing a voluminous gown that highlighted her silhouette and turned heads with its bold neckline. The conservationist-turned-dancer-turned-TV personality exuded confidence as she posed with her family, reminding the world of the Irwins’ evolving style and public presence.
The family came out in full force to support Robert, who has been training intensively for the competition. He shared glimpses of his preparation online, including a clip showing him hyperventilating after a grueling rehearsal session, with his partner Witney Carson joking, “I’ve killed him!” Robert quickly reassured her, captioning the video, “Post-rehearsals mood,” with a laughing emoji.
Bindi and Terri were joined by Chandler Powell and their daughter Grace, four, who stole hearts in an adorable baby blue dress. The family photos captured moments of affection, with Bindi cuddling Grace and smiling alongside her husband, demonstrating that even in glamour, the Irwins remain a close-knit unit.
On Instagram, Bindi shared her excitement, writing, “Tonight is the night! Robert’s debut on Dancing With The Stars. Such a surreal feeling to be here with my family 10 years later.” She also encouraged fans to support her brother, adding, “So excited to cheer on my brother and his incredible partner, Witney.”
Robert, for his part, posted a group photo of the family, captioning it, “The fam has arrived for the live show! Dancing with the Stars premiere here we go.” The message reflected both his excitement and gratitude for the unwavering support of his family as he embarked on this new chapter.
Fans quickly reacted to the Irwins’ red-carpet appearance, praising both Terri’s unexpected glamour and Bindi’s elegant yet bold style. Social media buzzed with comments celebrating the family’s ability to combine charisma, style, and heartfelt support in one unforgettable evening.
The night wasn’t just about fashion or fandom — it was a celebration of family, perseverance, and Robert stepping into the spotlight in a new way. With Terri and Bindi leading the way, the Irwins reminded the world that they can dazzle both in the wild and on the red carpet.
