    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).Ā  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 forgetĀ 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. BeyoncĆ© 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.

These days, the after-party is just as important as the red carpet when it comes to fashion—a fact that's completely fine by us. Two looks in one night? That means double the number of beyond exquisite dresses for us to obsess over. And seeing as how the Oscars is the awards show of all awards show, you can bet that A-listers would bring their fashion A game.

This year's—both the televised event and the after-party—brought a parade of gowns that took red carpet dressing to the next level. For some, that meant the same silhouette but in different colorways; for others, that meant a completely different look. Take Brie Larson, for instance, who changed out of her custom cobalt blue ruffled Gucci gown and softened up in a salmon pink velvet off-the-shoulder Monse gown that she color-coordinated with Roger Vivier sandals. The finishing accessory? Her gold Oscars statuette.

From Alicia Vikander to Jennifer Lawrence, keep scrolling to see 10 other Oscars looks that you didn't see grace the red carpet.

The OscarĀ winner had a Disney princess moment on the 2016 Oscars red carpet, drawing comparisons with Belle fromĀ Beauty and the BeastĀ in her strapless buttercup yellow Louis Vuitton creation. But for the after-party, she changed into somethingĀ a touch sexier,Ā selecting a slinky sequined Louis Vuitton gown with a plunging neckline and long sleeves. A diamond pendant delivered the right dose of brilliance.

Munn turned up the heat twice, but in two different ways. She selected a sleek one-shoulder Stella McCartney column saturated in a fiery shade for the red carpet, and then a sexy forest green J. Mendel number spliced at the bodice and skirt for the after-party.
