    The 35 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

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

No, Santa Claus isn’t coming. Instead, we’ve officially kicked off New York Fashion Week, which has already gifted us with so much late-night after-party action we’re reaching for our fourth cup of coffee in order to stay awake. Some celebrity-packed parties feel more like sleepy, perfectly scheduled cocktail hours, but at Fashion Week, people aren’t afraid to throw down.

Enter Off-White designer Virgil Abloh and model-of-the-moment Bella Hadid. The duo headed to Schutz’s Madison Avenue flagship on Wednesday to raise a glass to the brand’s fall 2017 collection. The Misshapes were on hand to officially pump the jams, but Abloh and Hadid took over, making us very curious about what, exactly, they keep on their playlists. Please share?

Pat McGrath hosted a voguing ball—yes, you read that right—in true Gotham fashion to celebrate her Labs beauty line. Naturally, McGrath only brings the best of the best, so supermodel Naomi Campbell was in the room along with Amanda Lepore, Cardi B, Tracee Ellis Ross, Sofia Richie, and Pamela Anderson. If that’s not a wild guest list, we’re not sure what is.

Tom Ford, of course, brought the magic as he debuted his latest collection and launched his Fucking Fabulous fragrance. Yes, the after-party was fabulous indeed, and Karlie Kloss hugged it out with friend Joan Smalls.

Later in the week, Kim Kardashian, Naomi Campbell, Kaia Gerber and almost every model imaginable flocked to the Public Hotel rooftop for Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott's new book launch. That same night, Rihanna stole the show in a hard-to-miss yellow crop top with a skirt that trailed behind at her Fenty Beauty celebration.

Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber(above) shared an adorable mother-daughter night out at Indochine, where they celebrated the Re/Done and Levi's capsule collection, while the Business of Fashion welcomed Selena Gomez and Jared Leto for its 500 gala and Alexander Wang's squad partied 'til the early hours of the morning following his show.

The parties, to say the least, were lit. Scroll down to see the best so far.
