Getting naked will not be hard at this year’s Oscars.
The almost-nothing dress loved so much by Rihanna, Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian on red carpets in 2015 seems to have become a Paris obsession.
At the Spring 2016 Couture runways (which, let’s face it, are pretty much an audition for Oscar night), sheerness ruled. Shoulder-to shin-transparency came mostly in white, black, and champagne. Caviar beading, clusters of flowers, and little black panties kept nipples and privates in check.
But Rih, Bey and Kim (the holy trinity of tulle) don’t seem too bothered about what is, and isn’t, on display. In fact, they’re so nonchalant about their nakedness, you gotta wonder how long it is until one of them steps out in nothing more than a fig leaf.
Click through to see our top 12 picks for naked dresses that might make censors the hottest trend on the red carpet come Oscar night.
