Let's face it, 2025 has been the year of the 'naked dress.' We've seen everyone from Kim Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski to Hailey Bieber and Victoria Beckham sport peekaboo sheer layers. What was once seen as slightly scandalous has without doubt stormed into the mainstream. The trick lies in carefully placed embellishment and crafty layering to hint at what lies beneath without actually causing a national scandal (although who could forget Kanye West's wife Bianca Censori doing exactly that when she arrived at this year's Grammy Awards in a completely sheer mesh dress.
One person who has flown the flag for the 'naked dress' way ahead of its 2025 surge into popularity, is none other than global pop sensation J Lo. Jennifer Lopez has long been a fan of lace mesh dresses that offer a cheeky sartorial wink when she steps onto the red carpet. Trust Jenny From the Block to be one step ahead.
So we took a trip down memory lane, to remind ourselves of all the amazing sheer dresses she has worn to round up some inspiration for the season ahead as party season properly gets into gear.
Let's take a look at Jennifer Lopez's best ever 'naked dresses'...

Of course, probably the most famous dress J Lo has ever sported has to be our last stop on this whirlwind tour. This Versace number (worn by Amber Valetta on its runway debut) certainly made its mark in fashion history.
