Despite what people might tell you, the sheer dress trend is still very much the leading aesthetic in the style sphere at the moment, and Jennifer Lopez just proved exactly why. On Tuesday night, the 56-year-old actress, singer, songwriter and mother was spotted appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and as expected, she dressed to impress for the occasion.
Currently on the promotional tour for her newest musical drama film, Kiss of the Spider Woman, the Hollywood Heavyweight proved there’s more than one way to promote a film, turning to her impeccable style game to get fans chatting.

On the runway, the dress was shown as a plunging neckline style, but to keep things more modest, JLo and her stylist Mariel Haenn added a lacey slip underneath.

As for her glam, luminous and bronzed was clearly the brief for the evening, prepping her skin for her signature glow with Jlo Beauty, before settling on a subtle brown smoky eye with sharp contouring and a lick of tonal gloss.

As far as ‘naked dressing’ goes, JLo is a major fan. Earlier this week, she opted for a semi-sheer Harris Reed option to attend the New York Screening of her new film alongside ex-husband Ben Affleck. Just weeks before that, she was seen styling a plunging, floral Roberto Cavalli gown over a set of white briefs at the YES Gala.

With party season (finally) in reach, a touch of sheer and shimmer is always a good idea, and Jennifer's recent look is the blueprint for what a great soirée ensemble should be.
