She then had the drawings embroidered on the upcycled dress she purchased for the event, Glamour reports.The back of Accurso’s dress.During her acceptance speech, Accurso pointed to each illustration on her dress, naming the kid who drew them, and shared the story of one of the artists, Rama, whose sisters both died in Gaza.Accurso holds up a photo of some of the kids who contributed drawings to her dress while posing on the red carpet with her husband, Aron.“I want to end with her words because they’re more important than mine,” Accurso said, before quoting the girl. “‘I want to tell the world that my sisters are not numbers. They are moons, they are like the stars, they shine and sparkle.’”There wasn’t a dry eye in the room after Ms. Rachel received a standing ovation for her #GlamourWOTY, and rightfully so. pic.twitter.com/kwkVEqX9LL— Javed Rashid Khan (@javedrashidINC) November 5, 2025Accurso first made her stance about kids in Gaza public in May 2024, when she announced a fundraiser for children in Gaza and other war zones.Earlier this year, Accurso received backlash from pro-Israel groups after she posted a video to her social media accounts in which she sang the popular children’s song “Hop Little Bunnies” while a 3-year-old girl from Gaza named Rahaf, who lost her legs in an airstrike, danced beside her.View this post on InstagramAccurso told NPR soon after that she was willing to “risk” her career to continue her advocacy work.“I wouldn’t be Ms Rachel if I didn’t deeply care about all kids,” she told the outlet. “And I would risk everything, and I will risk my career over and over to stand up for them. It’s all about the kids for me.”Related...'How Could You Watch 15,000 Children Be Killed?': Ms Rachel Addresses World Leaders Over GazaMs Rachel Just Admitted To Something We've All Been WonderingBritish Toddler Who Loves Ms Rachel Ends Up With *Very* Different Accent
