    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

Scarlett Johnasson's style is never lost in translation.

Year after year, Johansson proves that she is always one to watch on the red carpet. From the  girl next door to femme fatale, the actress continually keeps us on our toes. But no matter which way Johansson's style sways, she always shows up with that look-at-me, bombshell style. Dolce & Gabbana (Johansson is a face for the Italian label) designer Domenico Dolce agrees. He told us in our April issue,"The word that always comes to mind is bellisma!" Johansson was just that when she turned up on the Oscars red carpet in 2011 in head-to-toe lace perfection, courtesy of Dolce himself.

A few of our other favorite Johansson looks were also living la dolce vita. A timeless black chiffon Versace gown was our number one favorite look, and that sapphire, emerald, and diamond Bulgari bib necklace? Swoon. While the white sculptural Armani Privé dress (that took 120 hours to make!) proves that Johansson is willing to take a risk. Another playful look that made our list? A neon minidress that drapes her hourglass shape in all the right places.

Want more of Scar Jo? Look through our gallery to see her best red carpet looks ever. We break down each look—from every shoe to every piece of jewelry—and dish out designer quotes, too.
