While not ‘naked dress’, per se, it is indeed mostly lingerie. Fancy lingerie, at that. The look was designed by Claire Sullivan, who has also recently dressed Kylie Jenner, Camila Cabello and Chloe Sevigny in her silky designs.

Katy Perry

Although most of Katy is still covered up by this gorgeous skirt by Who Decides War, this look was ‘naked’ enough to have us wondering what body oil Katy has been using.

Tate McRae

It seems Tate McRae is still angling for the leading role in Britney Spears’ biopic, because she paid tribute to Britney’s 2001 VMAs look with this sheer, lace mini dress by Roberto Cavalli.

If you’ve got neon underwear, why not flaunt it? Tyla, who caused a stir with her gorgeous look from this year’s Met Gala, has done it again with this rope-y take on the bandage dress.

This ‘liquid leather’ dress for Tinashe is almost like a second skin, with the gorgeous pop star appearing like she’s almost ‘shedding’ the black Rick Owens gown.
