    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

The thought of staying in and enjoying a good book and glass of wine while in the bath probably sounds like bliss, but there's only so many times you can bail on your plans. When you're all out of free passes from your friends, you're going to have to start getting ready for the night—after a quick disco nap, of course.

It doesn't matter how much of a good time you're having, staying out past midnight is tough enough when you're dealing with rude bartenders and bathroom lines. How can you make the night out easier for yourself? Not having to struggle with your makeup, too. When you're hopping from sweaty bar to even sweatier bar, your eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara is inevitably going to smudge and crease. And the foundation and concealer you applied using a Beautyblender? It's probably oxidized.

You might not be able to avoid a cover charge, but you can keep your makeup from sliding off mid-night. Here, we've rounded up long-wear makeup products that will stay on long after last call.

NARS Powermatte Lip Pigment

$26
SHOP IT

There’s no shortage of matte liquid lipsticks to choose from, but not many formulas hold up through drinking coffee and salad dressing without fading or getting flaky as well as NARS’ Powermatte Lip Pigment. That’s why our bets are on any of these soft, shine-free-finish shades staying on well after midnight, whether or not a makeout sesh takes place.

We all have that one friend that can somehow keep the party going—no matter how late it is. That’s exactly the M.O. of this full-coverage Yves Saint Laurent foundation. The formula smooths over and hides imperfections without getting dry, flaky, or fading for up to 24 hours.

Milk Makeup Eye Pigment

SHOP IT

Our relationship with most eyeshadows? It's complicated. Even if you use a primer, when you're sweating at a party, the heat is going to make the smoky eye you finally nailed melt right off. Luckily, there's a few eyeshadow formulas that feel our pain, including Milk Makeup's Eye Pigments. These mega-pigmented cream shadows cover lids with bold shadow in one swipe, but aside from taking seconds to apply, the best part is that eyeshadows actually stay put.

Tarte Park Ave Princess Bronzer & Contour Palette

$46
SHOP IT

There's few makeup techniques that are more confusing than contouring and highlighting. That's where this Tarte palette comes in. It includes six bronzing and highlighting shades, allowing you to completely customize how you sculpt your features and add a natural glow to your complexion. Each of the powders are infused with the brand's hero ingredient, Amazonian clay, which helps the product go on tiger stripe-free, and stay on for up to 12 hours.

L'Oreal Paris Voluminous Lash Paradise Waterproof Mascara

$10
SHOP IT

This L'Oreal tube of mascara might be the same shade as the rosé you're going to drink tonight, but there's nothing cutesy about the dramatic volume and length it gives lashes in a single swoop. Reach for the waterproof version of it for a sweat-resistant, clump-free finish that will last longer than it takes to get your bartender's attention.

Stila All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner

$22
SHOP IT

There’s a special place in hell for liquid eyeliners that lie about being smudge-resistant and waterproof. Stila’s pen keeps both promises, plus it has a felt fine-tip applicator that makes drawing on straight, precise lines surprisingly easy.

ColourPop Super Shock Blush in Birthday Suit

$8
SHOP IT

The average powder blush often gets a bad rep for brushing or fading off. That's where ColourPop's blush pots come in. The powder melts into a creme finish upon contact so that the color is locked into place—whether you head home after dinner or end up watching the sun rise. A single sweep of a rosy shade like Birthday Suit on the apples of your cheeks will give your complexion a healthy flush, but it's also easily buildable if you want an intense wash of color, too.

$29
SHOP IT

SHOP IT

Still recovering from over-plucking your brows in the early 2000s? Brush on a powder that will fill in sparse spots so that your arches look naturally soft and full. Benefit's dual-shade compact includes a light and dark shade that mimics natural gradient look of the brow from beginning to tail. And while its formula may be a powder, it stays glued to your arches like a pomade.

Revlon ColorStay Ultimate Suede Lipstick

$11
SHOP IT

When lipsticks brag that they're long-wear, the pigment might stay on your lips, but not without getting dry or flaky. You can count on this Revlon tube's staying power, but it's enriched with hydrating shea butter and aloe so that both the color and your lips remain smooth.
