    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

Runway-Inspired Fall Trends Under $100

Runways all around the world dictate the trends and styles that will represent the season. The runways are so influential that standout prints, special detailing, and colors make their way off the runway and right onto the racks of our favorite retail stores. What's great about this movement is that often times the clothes become much more wearable as they translate to retail level. To wit: That fully fringed dress you saw on the runway, the impossibly chic Mara Hoffman number (above, left) that looks like it could've easily weighed more than you, has translated to a miniskirt with easy-to-wear layers of fringe. The blue monochrome looks shown on the Proenza Schouler runway (above, center) hit the mall in separates that you can pair together or with anything else in your wardrobe. At Christian Dior, the hyper-pigmented color blocked dresses (above, right) sent out signals that the color  method is here to stay—and the message was received as our favorite retailers delivered refreshing takes on the look.

Other prominent trends were windowpane-printed pieces that made an appearance on the Honor, 3.1 Phillip Lim, and Tod’s runway and the long-sleeved crop tops shown at Louis Vuitton, Rag & Bone, Chanel. All of these trends are universally flattering and statement-making, so it's only natural that our go-to (affordable!) retailers embraced them and followed suit. Click through the gallery to shop runway-inspired pieces under $100 for fall's top five trends.

Windowpane Print

Credit: ImaxTree

The clean lines bring a sophisticated feel to this print while the zoomed-in size supplies a fun and playful edge. Look for pieces with sharp silhouettes and dark colors with contrasting lines. Accessories-wise, opt for ladylike shapes, like a top-handle bag and pointy-toe pumps-they will add a dose of femininity to this borrowed-from-the-boys pattern.

Fringe

This flapper-inspired trimming has become a bit more casual and a lot more wearable. On the runway, it was shown in bulk with layers and layers of fringe, but at the retail level you can shop pieces that are simply accented with the adornment. You want to seek out pieces with either long or short fringe-that in-the-middle length has too much movement for everyday wear. Last but not least, stick to black.

Color Block

This season, color blocking was reimagined with shapely patterns, geometric prints, and embellishments. Colors are extremely pigmented, intermittently muted, and oftentimes come in sets of three. These look-at-me pieces are easy to work into your wardrobe as they look best with simple staples.

Long-Sleeve Crop Top

Credit: ImaxTree

Crop tops dominated this summer-so much so that it may be tough to tuck them into the back of your closet for fall. Instead, replace your airy, barely-there style with a hearty, long-sleeve option. The silo works best with high-waisted bottoms or layered over a simple, snug dress.

Feeling Blue

Credit: ImaxTree

Treat your blue pieces as a neutral this season-just as you would black, cream, and gray. No matter what shade (think: cerulean, navy, royal, or cobalt), blue is a refreshing departure from wear-with-anything colors. So do just that: wear the hue with anything and everything. Mix your blues, too. The shades play well together and create a cool, cohesive look.
