    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).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. 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.

Oval-Shaped Faces

Credit: Wenn

Just about any style of sunglasses works on an oval-shaped face, especially aviators and wraparounds. "Beyonce's oversize Wayfarers-style shades also work great as the geometric shape is a nice counter to the soft curves of her face," says celebrity stylist and ILORI Style Ambassador Jennifer Rade.

Heart-Shaped Faces

Credit: SplashNewsOnline.com

Those with a heart-shaped face like Jennifer Aniston's should opt for more delicate styles, such as wire or oversize plastic frames, that won't draw attention to the forehead. "The plastic style Jennifer's wearing really complement her face, as the twisted side detail accentuates her cheekbones and jawline," says Rade. "This design also draws the eye outward and balances well with her face."

Oblong-Shaped Faces

Credit: SplashNewsOnline.com

If you have a long, oblong-shaped face like Liv Tyler's, it's best to choose oversize glasses that cover more of the face, breaking up its length. "These sunglasses really work on Liv because the wider square frame is a good counterpoint to her face shape," says Rade. Adding that, "the extra thickness on the sides of the frame helps give the illusion of more facial width."

Round-Shaped Faces

"Isla Fisher is a perfect example of great round face, and these sunglasses really suit her," says Rade. "The angles on these frames are a nice contrast to her rounded jawline and they help to add definition to her face." It's important to look for frames with straight or angular lines that will lengthen and slim the face, and avoid rounded styles that accentuate full cheeks.

Square-Shaped Faces

Credit: INF Goff

Those with square-shaped faces like Vanessa Hudgens's should look for rounded frames or circular lenses, both of which will soften the face's angularity. "The classic Ray-Ban aviator is a great choice for an angular face like Vanessa's," says Rade. "This style looks best on a person with a strong jawline as that helps to balance the bottom of the frame."
