    The 39 Most Naked Dresses of All Time

    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

Sienna Miller - Best Ever - Lead

When it comes to getting red carpet-ready, Sienna Miller always goes with her gut. "Sienna is one of the few people I know who choose a look based on whether it makes them smile,” says Miller’s stylist Kate Young. “If it's a little eccentric and can make her laugh, even better!”

Young, who has been working with the Live By Night actress since 2014, says Miller's lighthearted approach to style is one of the reasons she can put on anything, from a feathered Prada pantsuit or a sheer Balenciaga midi, and still make it all look easy. "She loves and appreciates the poetry of fashion,” says Young. “Those little details like a tulle ruffle or a flash of sequins that make an outfit so incredibly satisfying. And that’s really rare. It’s actually lost on a lot of people.”

Miller’s finishing touches are also part of the equation. Her tousled hair and glowy makeup are simple and refreshing in our increasingly over-primped and over-contoured world. Says Young, “Since she doesn't take her clothes or hair and makeup too seriously, she always looks like herself—just in a really fancy dress."

Keep scrolling to see the star’s 10 best looks of all-time.

“Thakoon makes the best Met outfits,” says Miller’s stylist Kate Young. “The theme was China, so we were trying to figure out how to wink at it with the bold red color and tassels. And a gown seemed boring and expected, so we decided on doing these awesome pants."

"Often I can't use looks from the Prada runway on the red carpet because they're too extreme. But as soon as I saw this, I knew Sienna could pull it off.”

“This was one of those dresses that when you see it up close you’re like, 'This is a treasure.' The lines of it are very simple, but the embroidery and beading was so unique and beautiful."

"Some actors view red carpets and events as work, but Sienna likes to go and have a good time. I think that really comes across in photos. She’s very at ease, even when she’s dressed up."

"This look was really exciting because it was [Gucci Creative Director] Alessandro Michele’s first big red carpet moment. We got two sketches and we loved them both. This one was just really special and unexpected because of the color. Sienna loves Gucci because it’s a little eccentric."
