The nude-dress obsession has returned, and it's more naked than ever. While this trend never seems to go away, it's surely carrying a punch for 2022. We've seen several incarnations of the style over the years, but it appears to fall into one of two categories right now: a skin-color body-con dress or a barely-there dress that's translucent or sheer or includes a strategically placed piece of material (or even a combination of all three).
Of course, bare clothing has a lengthy history. Those who are major Cher fans (and who isn't?) will remember the singer's devotion to creations by designer Bob Mackie, who routinely produced risqué pieces for her. However, there was Marilyn Monroe's notorious transparent gown, which she wore in 1962 to sing "Happy Birthday" to President John F. Kennedy.
However, in recent years, this fashion has gone full glam. I've seen a lot of bare dresses on the red carpet in the last few weeks, proving that this trend is clearly back.
What to Remember When Wearing a Naked Dress?
With nearly every fashion superstar worth her threads flaunting their curves in the Naked Dress - a sheer gown or dress that allows little to the imagination - we teach you how to wear the trend without looking sassy.
Choose the appropriate lingerie.
You could use self-adhesive body suits, midi briefs, mid-rider lace thongs, high waist-shaping briefs, mid-waist briefs, high-waist bikini panties, or high-waist bodycon skirt slips depending on your attire.
Avoid using a lot of contrast.
Wearing a brightly coloured or fluorescent bra underneath a sheer top is too overdone and gaudy, unless you're a rock star playing in front of a million screaming fans. Keep it understated.
Select the appropriate nude
Wear flesh-colored underwear that is as close to your skin tone as possible. Ones that are too dark or too light will make your outfit appear odd.
Wear slips that are not the same color as your dress.
Wearing a slip the same length as the naked dress in the same color negates the idea of the naked dress, doesn't it?
A fit and toned body is required.
Loose, flabby skin and silvery stretch marks can be a turn-off. If you don't have the physique to show off, choose a more modest option with sheer panels and cuts.
