    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

When it comes to the slip dress, we sound like a broken record. It's because we love it so much—and we have a deep archive of articles to show for it. We've shopped them out in every color and print, we've looked to the stars for style guidance, and we've taken cues from the runway to transition them into winter. But out of all the slips in the world (and there are many, trust), there is one particular style from one particular brand that celebrities keep going back to, so much so that we can't help but take notice.

By designer Nili Lotan, the slip dress in question is crafted from fine silk charmeuse with a raw-edge hemline, and it comes in literally every color imaginable. And given its recent meteoric rise in fame—exposure from Gigi Hadid, Kim Kardashian, Selena Gomez, and Kylie Jenner, to name a few—it's hard to believe that this slip was first conceived nearly a decade ago.

"Did I know it was going to be a success? No! I designed it the same way I designed any other dress," Lotan told us. "But I knew it was something when I first opened my East Hamptons store six years ago and in the first week, a woman came in and ordered that dress in 10 colors—that's when I realized, How often do you design an item that people want multiples of? It's not candy, these are expensive dresses."

Since its inception, she's reimagined her classic cami-style design in every shade, in varying lengths, and in different fabrications, but she maintains that the knee- and floor-length styles in navy and black charmeuse are best-sellers. And once this recent wave of It girls discovered the dress, Lotan remarked she could hardly keep it in stock ("It was completely unexpected," she said).

As for an explanation of why this slip dress is so in-demand, Lotan can only guess. "The details—there's something about the contrast between the elegant dress and the raw finish that makes it so cool," she says. "It's sexy, it's minimal, it's sophisticated, it's timeless, and it's seasonless, which embodies everything my brand stands for. You put it on and you are in a million dollar dress."
