    The 39 Most Naked Dresses of All Time

    Naked dresses are perhaps the most impressive of all red carpet feats. While they may not always make the best-dressed list, they do require a certain breed of celebrity to pull off. Not only do you have to have the balls to risk a wardrobe malfunction, but you have to do it with enough confidence that you look fierce — not terrified — in the photographs. Take Naomi Campbell's appearance in Valentino's couture show during the spring/summer 2019 presentation. The legendary model gracefully strutted down the runway in a see-through gown with a ruffle skirt. (Click through the gallery for the NSFW photo).  Get the inside scoop on all your favorite celebrities with our FREE daily newsletter, InStyle Celebrity. Breaking news, relationship updates, hairstyle inspo, fashion trends, and more direct to your inbox! Let's not forget Rihanna’s infamous CFDA dress either. The girl rocked a completely sheer dress without a bra — and later remarked that her only regret was not wearing a bedazzled thong to match. That, my friends, is dedication. Then, there was the year 2015, when the Met Gala saw not one nor two but three naked dresses on the red carpet, all worn by Hollywood’s hottest A-listers. Jennifer Lopez, above, bared her famous curves in a custom Atelier Versace illusion gown. Beyoncé was nearly naked in Givenchy. And Kim Kardashian West almost looked modest in comparison in her sheer Roberto Cavalli dress, because no one’s getting naked without KKW joining in. Click through to see the best naked dresses of all time.

    The 5 Haircut Trends That Will Dominate 2020

    The beginning of the new year comes with the irresistible urge to start over fresh, which means it's a great time to get a haircut.  This decade's first big hair trends include looks at every length that can be tailored to your hair texture and personal style. For anyone with a blunt bob — the most popular haircut of the past few years — you probably already guessed that the cut will still be going strong into the next decade. But there will be a few tweaks. As seen on Kerry Washington, 2020's bob has textured, softer edges, and looks amazing whether you part it down the middle or off to the side.  RELATED: The 10 Hairstyles You'll See Everywhere This Winter But if you swear that 2020 is going to be the year you finally grow out your hair, let Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian's extra-long lengths be your inspiration. Or, you can get the look instantly with the help of some clip in extensions.  To help you figure out how to wear your hair in the new year, we've rounded up the five biggest haircut trends of 2020, so you'll be sure of what you want before you head to the salon in January.  VIDEO: The Five Biggest Haircut Trends of 2020

Paris Couture Week can always be counted on to deliver epic beauty moments that are equally as breathtaking as the made-to-measure pieces the fashion house's designers send down the runways. For Fall 2017, there's even more hair and makeup looks to scope out thanks to Rodarte and Proenza Schouler showing in Paris for the first time, along with Peter Dundas showing his debut collection.

A baby's breath hair garden, multimedia lipstick, and violet smoky eyes are just a few of the beauty looks we can't stop thinking about. Here, we've rounded up the best hair and makeup moments from the Fall 2017 Haute Couture shows.

Proenza Schouler Haute Couture Fall 2017

For its first show in Paris, Proenza Schouler didn’t stray from its usual no-makeup makeup, but we loved the slicked-back, wet-look waves that were created by hairstylist Holli Smith for Bumble and bumble. After slicking back models’ hair with gel and clipping it in place to let it dry, Smith added extensions for length, then spritzed Bumble and bumble Thickening Hairspray ($29; sephora.com) through the lengths of hair and clipped it to set the shape. After about 10 minutes, Smith ran Bumble and bumble’s Surf Foam Blow Dry Spray ($31; sephora.com) in the lengths and rough-dried it with a diffuser. She twisted the lengths again and pinned them with hair pins to add structure to the style.

Dior Haute Couture Fall 2017

With a collection inspired by exploring the world, Dior Makeup Creative and Image Director Peter Philips gave models a soft nude look to compliment their textured, wind-swept ponytails created by Guido Palau. After perfecting the models' complexions, he applied a veil of Dior DiorBlush Contour & Light in n°001 ($44; dior.com) and a touch of Dior's Diorskin Nude Air Luminizer in n°001($56; dior.com) to make the high planes of the face glow. Philips kept the eyes neutral and groomed brows using Dior DiorShow Brow Styler ($29; dior.com) and Dior Diorshow Bold Brow. A lip scrub and a coat of balm completed the look.

Chanel Haute Couture Fall 2017

Classic Chanel tweed was given an edgy, artistic touch via the hair and makeup at the fashion house's Fall 2017 couture show. Hairstylist Sam McKnight gave each model a low, twisted and looped ponytail with a bowler hat worn on top. Some ponys were even held in place with a hair net. 

Makeup artist Tom Pecheux made the look all about the eyes. He used a kalediscope of eyeshadows to colorblock and slightly blend them to create a stained glass window effect.

The glitter lip was alive at Miu Miu's cruise collection. Pat McGrath coated the models' lips with Elson, a new shade from her upcoming Lust: MatteTrance lipstick collection with the Vermillion Glitter from her Lust 004 lip kit layered on top.

Consider the low ponytails with face-framing tendrils left out even more proof that the ponytail you throw your hair up into at the gym works for any occasion—even when wearing couture.

Dundas Cruise 2018

Peter Dundas paired his debut collection with one of the most killer smoky eyes we’ve seen in a while. Makeup legend Pat McGrath used products from her eponymous line to create the violet eye makeup. The perfect nude lip came courtesy of Lust: MatteTrance Lipstick in 1995, one of the shades in her upcoming matte lipstick collection. Low, waist-grazing braids tied with black ribbon completed the look.

Rodarte Haute Couture Fall 2017

Credit: Estrop/Getty (2)

What's a flower crown? The hair at Rodarte's first Paris show took wearing flowers in your hair to the next level. Stylist Odile Gilbert for Bumble and bumble prepped models' damp hair with Bumble and bumble's Don't Blow It Thick ($31; sephora.com) and Surf Infusion ($29; sephora.com) and diffused it. Gilbert sporadically tied up the models' hair with an assortment of ribbon, metal bows, and baby's breath headpieces that were fastened with a kirby grip. 

The flower theme came full circle with the makeup, which was inspired by the texture of flower petals. A blend of baby pink and beige blush and eyeshadow were used on the cheeks for a pretty flush and lips were coated with NARS Satin Lip Pencil in Biscayne Park ($27; narscosmetics.com), a peachy-pink shade with a bit of sheen.

Maison Margiela Haute Couture Fall 2017

The only makeup artist that can outdo Pat McGrath is Pat McGrath herself. The makeup artist created customized looks for each of the models that incorporated bleached-brows, mixed-media red lips, and holographic appliqués. Hairstylist Eugene Souleiman took the look to the next level by painting the model's hair with everything from blue glitter to gold, as seen on Bella Hadid.

Forget spider lashes. Makeup artist Peter Philips made a case for thick, fluffy lashes at Fendi. Models' hair was tied back into low, textured ponytails at the nape of their necks, and some were even accessorized with fuzzy scrunchies.

All that glitters was gold at Jean Paul Gauthier. Models were given sparkly stripes and bangs in with gold hair paint. As for the makeup, a classic red lip may have been the focus, but the glitter tears on some models made the look 'gram-worthy.

The hairstyles at Viktor & Rolf were individual to each model but the makeup look was kept uniform. A red matte lip was paired with a touch of silver eyeshadow along the waterlines.

Valentino Haute Couture Fall 2017

Credit: Estrop/Getty

At Valentino Pat McGrath made a major case for making white eyeliner a staple in your fall makeup bag. The legend gave the models individual looks by drawing on graphic swipes on the inner and outer corners of their eyes with white pigment. It was an effect that was a cool contrast to Guido Palau's dreamy wispy ponytails.
