For a look that offers so little coverage, the naked dress has commanded a frankly spectacular amount of actual coverage across the media landscape in 2025. After Cannes Film Festival banned the dress code for 2025, fans of the flirtatious fad doubled down on their love for all-things sheer - ensuring that no red carpet went without at least one stellar naked look for all to coo over. 

Included in the mix? Quite honestly, too many too list here, but stand-out moments span Margot Robbie’s bejewelled custom Armani Privé dress to Dakota Johnson and Demi Moore’s gothic lace Gucci numbers, Lily Allen’s cream Coleen Allen ‘revenge dress’ among many, many others.

Clearly, women took issue with this policing of their bodies. Celebrities collectively banded together to show off their assets on the red carpet - proving that showing a little skin never hurts. 

Since this unspoken pact among industry insiders took hold, fashion devotees have been flooded with an unrelenting parade of naked dresses, each more audacious than the last. Fabrics ranging from sheer mesh to metallic knit, chainmail, lace and airy organza showcased the versatility of the trend - which looks like it’s very much here to stay. 

Fashion insiders understand that the naked dress phenomenon is nothing new - just ask Kate Moss. Yet, 2025 proved to be the year of the naked dress, empowering female figures to wear whatever they want, whenever they want. 

Take a look back at the best naked dress looks of 2025 below.
