    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

Expert's Top 10: Lauren Zeifman on Repairing Summer Skin Damage

Cosmetic Dermatology Practitioner, Lauren Zeifman, PA-C and Founder of Park Avenue Skin Solutions is one of New York’s leading skin experts. We caught up with Zeifman, who offered her expert advice on everything from how to undo skin damage that surfaces from the summer months, to tackling everyday issues women of varying ages deal with-from wrinkles, to hyperpigmentation, to scarring.

From the invasive to non-invasive, Zeifman provides us with surefire ways of both preventing and fixing signs of aging. She's a stickler for year-round sunscreen use (her favorite  zinc-infused formula works for all skin types) and advocates regular application of hydrating serums and retinoids (the prescription strength and faster-acting counterpart to retinols).  Aside from products and treatments, Lauren suggests  yoga and meditation for their anti-aging and toxin-ridding properties.  Click through the gallery for Zeifman's dermatologist-proven tips for a youthful complexion!

ViPeel

"I am a huge advocate for chemical peels," says Zeifman. "Chemical peeling involves the application of a chemical exfoliant to wound the epidermis and dermis for the removal of superficial lesions, unwanted hyperpigmentation and scars, and to improve the texture of skin, as well as to soften fine lines. Peel summer damage away in a therapeutic manner with one of my favorites, the ViPeel (consult with your dermatologist for further information vipeel.com). Your skin feels like a baby tush and shines like the top of the Chrysler Building after the peeling process is complete!"

Glycolix Elite SPF 30 Sunscreen

Credit: Courtesy

"If wearing sunscreen is seasonal for you, it's time to change your ways and get in to the habit of wearing sunscreen 365 days a year. My favorite is Replenix Glycolix 30 ($30; dermstore.com). This is a medical grade, 17-percent micro-ionized zinc oxide. Because zinc is a natural anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory, this cream is safe and effective for all skin types without the risk of clogging the pores or causing a flare-up. Apply this to freshly cleaned skin before applying makeup."

Botox

"What comes along with summer sun are fine lines as a result of constant squinting. These lines are known as the “11 lines” (skin between eyes) or “crow’s feet” (skin around the eyes). Within one week of your Botox treatment, lines fade away (consult with your dermatologist for further information botoxcosmetic.com). I call it the youth juice!"

Tazorac Cream

"Retinoids are a mainstay in all of my patients' personalized skin rehab programs. Retinoids vary in preparations and potency, promoting cell renewal and cell turnover. Tazorac Cream or Gel is my go-to retinoid, which is by prescription only." (Consult with your dermatologist for further information tazorac.com.)

Lumecca Laser

"I am amazed by the results we are getting from the Lumecca laser (consult with your dermatologist for further information inmodemd.com). This IPL treatment is superior to other IPL treatments on the market, combining high-peak power and optimal spectrum output. Expect a reduction in age spots, broken capillaries, scarring, and an overall improvement in skin complexion. Lumecca can be performed all over the body for the removal of sunspots such as on the neck, chest, hands, and legs."

L’dara Advanced Anti-Aging Serum

"The sun can dehydrate our skin, giving way to a ruddy, non-radiant complexion. L’dara Advanced Anti-Aging Serum ($120; ldaraserum.com) is an amazing hydrator. The LBP-5 complex derived from the age-defying goji berry combined with science-backed ingredients allows for the most beautiful texture and silky feeling serum on the market."

"It’s anti-aging for the brain! A healthy brain is just as important as healthy skin. Recent research suggests that meditation and other forms of mindful relaxation may help slow down the biological clock."

Fractora Laser

"Treat superficial and deep wrinkles, as well as poor texture, with the Fractora laser (consult with your dermatologist for further information inmodemd.com). The Fractora is the newest generation of fractional ablative lasers. This state-of-the-art anti-aging treatment ablates and resurfaces the skin, improving fine lines, skin laxity, texture abnormalities, and scarring. I am treating face, neck, chest, hands, and upper and lower eyelids with this laser and getting great results."

"A concentrated serum ($82; dermstore.com) with the clinical strength of Pro-Niacin that aids in diminishing sun spots and discoloration. Niacin has emerged as a key factor in helping the skin protect and repair itself from sun damage and aging. Other key ingredients formulating this amazing serum is vitamin C, tyrosinase inhibitors and hexylresorcinol. Apply this in the a.m. and p.m. and get ready to see fabulous improvements in your skin’s texture, skin tone, and hyperpigmentation."

Yoga

"A regular yoga practice can improve your skin. Yoga reduces stress hormones that accelerate us to age at an advanced rate and it also removes toxins out of our system that create unnecessary chaos in our body, mind, and skin! The combination of the deep, restorative breaths and the flow of movement will give you an instant glow, wiping away any ruddy summer skin."
