Ah, the naked dress!! Something that has been taking over the internet for quite some time now, it’s every celebrities favorite type of Dress. Kate Moss, Rihanna, and Marilyn Monroe are amongst many that are known to have worn several naked dresses over the years and they have a huge hand in keeping this trend going. It’s one of those dresses that will show off not one of their assets but all of their bodies. Marilyn Monroe sang Happy Birthday to President John F. Kennedy long time back wearing a naked dress with stones embroidered all over it. The trend is all about strategically placed embroidery over the mesh! Today we are going to talk about the world’s most fearless celebs in all their body showing gowns.

Some would say the name of the naked dress also came from the famous conversation between Carrie and Miranda from Sex and The City. Where Carrie wore a skin-colored DKNY slip dress for her first date with Mr.Big and called it the “naked dress”. To this Miranda said “She’s not gonna have sex. She’s just gonna look like sex,”. “That’s right. I’m just the trailer,” and just like this, the huge trend had a name.

Kim Kardashian is another popular celebrity known to wear a lot of sheer clothes along with owning the #NippleFreeTrend that was huge last year. Learn more about this trend that was linked to equality in more detail here:

Recently, Kim Kardashian made headlines when she was on her way to Calabasas eatery Shibuya Sushi in a Helmut Lang dress with beige, mid-rise underwear beneath it. We know the color of her underwear because it was just that sheer meaning – a naked dress. The dress was pretty much just transparent plastic, under which she wore a pair of silk panties and no bra. She topped the look with a very strategically placed Jil Sander coat. On her feet? None other than clear plastic Yeezy stiletto mules. We’ve seen other plastic fashion popping up lately in the form of jeans, which the Internet has not been amused by. The most talked about ones were from Topshop.

Let’s just clarify exactly what we call a true naked dress? It’s not just because it is the color of your skin or super revealing, it’s a style statement that just hints the illusion of nakedness. A naked dress is a combination of sexy and fashionable both making it a trend that is not ready to slow down at all. One of many fashionista’s favorite naked dress in history would have to be the metallic sheer slip dress on Kate Moss in 1993 when she attended the Elite Model agency party in London.
