    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

Tom Ford: Manicures Are Mandatory!

Credit: Newspress/Splash News

Our January issue features a behind-the-scenes look at the film A Single Man, the directorial debut of star-favorite fashion designer Tom Ford. Though Ford didn't create the '60s era costumes himself (stylist Arianne Phillips curated the chic pieces), he still applied his discerning eye to every element of the film, no matter how small. "I made everyone [in the cast] have a manicure and pedicure almost every day on set," Ford told us at the movie's Toronto Film Festival premiere. "You never know when you'll see a character's hands or feet in shots and it's so expensive to retouch." And the mandatory pampering didn't just apply to leading ladies Julianne Moore and Ginnifer Goodwin. "You see close-ups of Colin [Firth] barefoot," Ford said. "And when feet are magnified on screen to that size..."

A Single Man opens in limited release today and expands nationwide on Decemeber 25.

Style Secrets from the Set of Nine

Credit: Courtesy of The Weinstein Company

The movie musical Nine doesn't hit theaters around the country until Christmas Day, but Penelope Cruz, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman and the other A-list actresses who make up the film's all-star cast have already generated plenty of buzz at the film's splashy London and Hollywood premieres. We got a sneak peek at the flick and were blown away as much by the fashions as by the stars' fantastic performances. We asked famed costume designer Colleen Atwood to share some of her style secrets and had the leading ladies tell us if any of the incredible costumes ended up in their own closets.

Get the scoop on style of NINE!

Catherine Zeta-Jones's Dressing Room Decor

Credit: Joan Marcus; Courtesy of Matt Schwartz

It turns out we’re not the only ones who are fans of Matt Schwartz’s Polaroid photography-Catherine Zeta-Jones is too! She purchased several pieces to decorate the walls of her Broadway dressing room where she is starring in the classic Stephen Sondheim show, A Little Night Music. Schwartz’s gorgeously faded images evoke lazy summer days, with a grainy, romantic effect that comes from his method of transferring Polaroids to watercolor paper. Retro subjects like pin-up girls, old records, and gumball machines make the photos feel whimsical and super nostalgic. Prices for framed and unframed prints range from $65-$200, and are available at shehitpausestudios.com.

EXCLUSIVE DISCOUNT! Instyle.com readers can receive 20 percent off all prints starting December 17th through December 23rd using the offer code: instylehitpause.

Exclusive: Ali Larter Back to Blond

Credit: Sharky/Splash News; Flynetpictures;Michael Tran/FilmMagic

Known for her bright blond locks, Ali Larter recently went red for a movie role-and then back to blond a few weeks later! "It was fun to be creative with the color. She has great hair!" Larter's stylist, Redken's Tracey Cunningham, told us. If you're thinking of making Larter's dramatic hair transformation, be prepared to spend long hours in the salon. "It's a timely process of building the color into her blond streaks," said Cunningham. "We are still taking her back to blond; this doesn't happen in one appointment."

Michelle Obama Most Fascinating Person

Credit: Kevin Dietsch/Landov; Samantha Appleton/Official White House Photo

Barbara Walters's most fascinating person of 2009 is… Michelle Obama!

In last night’s interview, the First Lady, wearing a sleeveless floral Rachel Roy dress, addressed her much talked about arms: "If there's anything that I can attribute these arms to, it's probably just determination," she told Walters. She also revealed her guilty pleasure: Lounging on the couch watching food and design shows with the family's dog Beau! Also on Walters's fascinating list were Adam Lambert, Kate Gosselin and Lady Gaga, who surprised Walters with her chic Chanel suit and demure demeanor. If you didn't catch the First Lady's interview with Walters, tune into Oprah Winfrey's special, Christmas at the White House, this Sunday at 10pm EST on ABC.

Cute couples alert! Victoria Beckham and Gwen Stefani posed alongside their husbands, David Beckham and Gavin Rossdale, at a dinner party in London last night and we couldn't help but notice each couples mirroring style! The Beckhams looked sharp and sleek, David in a slim grey suit and Victoria a sexy little black dress, while Stefani and Rossdale took a more laid-back approach to fashion-Gwen in an oversize checkered wrap and Gavin in a casual khaki jacket and plaid scarf. We already adore mommy and me fashion moments, but what do you think about husband and me?

Last night, Mavis Spencer, daughter of award-winning actress Alfre Woodard, was named named Miss Golden Globe 2010 during a bash at L.A. hot spot Nobu. Here’s what Spencer, 18, told us about style, Shakespeare, and her celebrity mom:

1. "My mom does most of my shopping. I usually show up at home and I go, ‘I love that, it’s great. Good job!’ She's got great taste."
2. "I am an aspiring actress. In the fall I’ll be attending Columbia University. I'm going to take a lot of classes, but acting for sure, history, and maybe some Shakespeare."
3. "I'm sort of a jeans and T-shirt kind of a girl. I never wear heels because I'm so tall."
4. "I get to pick my own Globes dress. I'd like to wear something long, but not with a train. I don't need any more help with the potential tripping element!"

Attention aspiring models across the pond! Supermodel Naomi Campbell is in talks to host a British version of America’s Next Top Model. “Naomi has been approached with an offer, which we are talking are...discussing... but nothing is set in stone yet,” Campbell’s spokesperson told the Daily Mail. If Campbell does sign on for the show, she'll give the reigning supermodel-turned-model scout, Tyra Banks, some competition-now that’s a runway walk-off we’d like to watch!

Rihanna

's lastest fashion choices can only be described in one word-fierce! The star hit the stage and the streets in N.Y.C. last week wearing a lineup of futuristic looks and debuted an edgy new punk-inspired schoolboy haircut. The singer kept the fun fashion coming over the weekend as the featured performer on Saturday Night Live, wearing a chainmail headpiece, a fur-shouldered jacket and even a tummy-baring top for her SNL Digital Short "Shy Ronnie". Rihanna's new look may not be for the faint of heart, but nevertheless, we're loving it!

How to Combat Hat Hair

@KVicci tweeted: -24 celsius today officially marks the return of toque hair! I would love to see @InStyle come up with a fashionable solution for that!

Since the temperature dropped, we've been thinking the same exact thing! We turned to one of our favorite celebrity hairstylists, Mark Townsend , whose clients include Reese Witherspoon, Natalie Portman, and January Jones, to get his tips for combatting hat-head hair:

1. "Pull your hair into a low bun at the nape of the neck, and avoid ponytails-the elastic can leave a mark in the hair."
2. "Wear soft hats like cotton or cashmere." (Clearly Kate Beckinsale and Rachel Bilson knew this one already!)
3. "To get body back, flip your head upside down, spritz with an aerosole dry shampoo (Editor's Note: We like Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo!), brush through, then flip back up."
