    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).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. BeyoncĆ© 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.

FOR THE WARM-WEATHER LOVER

Until temperatures begin to rise again, Maison Martin Margiela’s Funfair Evening serves as the next best thing. Sugary elements like apple and caramel pay homage to fall treats, while warm orange blossom and amber trigger equally warm memories of basking in the sun. $110; maisonmartinmargiela-parfums.com for locations

FOR THE DO-GOODER

The only thing better than this fresh jasmine, musk, and mandarin blend? The fact that Philosophy donates proceeds raised by its Giving Grace fragrance to multiple charities. $44; philosophy.com

FOR THE MULTI-TASKER

When you’re always on the go, you need a fragrance that works overtime. By Kilian’s A Night in Shanghai blend of Egyptian geranium, blackcurrant, and vanilla starts out rich, but as the day goes on, notes of rose, cinnamon, and plum emerge. As an added bonus, the rhinestone-studded packaging doubles as a sleek clutch. $295; bergdorfgoodman.com

FOR THE BOHO-CHIC HIPSTER

If Lena Dunham’s 'Girls' were given fragrance equivalents, you’d have Catbird's solid perfumes. Embodied in the rose and incense-based Tarot Deck scent the modern bohemian Jemima; Ghost Rose, with its classic English rose, peony, and champagne elements, Marni; and Fig Leaf, with it's blend of friendly dandelion, hay, and cedar elements with fig, Hannah, on a good day. As for Shoshanna? We’re hoping that the effervescent Seven Seas candle gets translated into perfume form to round out the fantastic four. $34; catbirdnyc.com

Just like her trendy, downtown wardrobe, the strong neroli, sweet pea, and mandarin blossom notes of Carven Le Parfum are an extension of her confident personality, while the rich sandalwood base suggests a down-to-earth vibe. $109; saksfifthavenue.com

If Marilyn Monroe is your BFF's style icon, then Dolce amp Gabbana’s gilded edition of The One will look right at home among her retro-inspired beauty finds.

FOR THE ROMANTIC

It’s easy to wax poetic over the seductive vanilla, blood orange, benzoin, amber violet, and wood notes mingling in Tocca’s elegant Margaux fragrance. Factor in the scent’s back story-it was inspired by a French beauty taking a moonlit stroll with her true love-and you’ve got a romance novel in a bottle. $68; tocca.com

The well-trained nose will certainly appreciate the dimension in Bond No. 9's Perfumista Avenue-the slight leather, nutmeg, and amber notes add some edge to delicate elements like rose, jasmine and peony for a modern take on the traditional floral mix. $260 for 50 ml; bondno9.com

Fun, friendly, sweet (but not cloying) Humiecki amp Graef’s Eau Radieuse is perfect for the party girl persona. Flavorful notes like mandarin, peppermint, and a slight twist of green banana-which get tempered by calming bamboo sap and rhubarb-make a truly unique mix that won’t quit until last call. $220; babalumiami.com

FOR THE STYLISH GAMINE

There’s something to be said about a woman who can rock wardrobe items reserved for the boy’s club better than they do, and for such bold sartorial choices, only an equally bold fragrance will do. Indian sandalwood takes center stage in NEST’s sharp White Sandalwood fragrance, as equal parts almond, mimosa, and cedar lend a sense of mystery. $65; sephora.com

FOR THE MODERN WOMAN

Nothing says “I am woman, hear me roar” quite like a strong, sexy fragrance, and Gucci’s Flora 1966 can have you conquering the world in just one spritz. The peony and rose notes cater to a delicate, feminine aspect, while bold, heady elements like bourbon pepper, bergamot, and patchouli grab your attention and invoke a confident, self-assured attitude. $200; sephora.com
