2025 Was The Nakedest Year On The Red Carpet
Margot Robbie’s G-string gown and Zoë Kravitz’s butt cleavage dress are only the beginning.

2025 was one for the record books. It was the year of the TikTok ban, the first American Pope, Katy Perry’s 11-minute space adventure — and, of course, an unparalleled amount of “naked dressing” on the red carpet.
It all started at the Golden Globes in January, with Cynthia Erivo’s plunging peplum, Miley Cyrus’ cutout LBD, and Heidi Klum’s slitted ’fit taking center stage. But those ensembles were conservative compared to the ones that came after. From Hollywood premieres and awards shows to fashion weeks and exclusive galas, low backs got lower, slits creeped higher, undies got more visible, and necklines plunged to new depths.
One of the main characters of “naked dressing” this year was Jenna Ortega, who stunned in barely-there outfits on the Wednesday Season 2 press tour, no-pants papped nights out, and in daring looks throughout awards season.
Sydney Sweeney also came out in full “naked” force throughout 2025, choosing bold cut-outs at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party in March, freeing the nip at another event five months later, and pulling a Marilyn Monroe on her press tour for The Housemaid in December.
When all is said and done, 2025 is without a doubt the nakedest year on record. Below, you’ll find 20 of the most standout scantily-clad celeb moments of the year.
1Margot Robbie
In September, the Barbie star stunned at the UK premiere of her movie A Big Bold Beautiful Journey in a sheer crystal gown. Sparkling at every angle, the look was completed with a bold and cheeky beaded G-string.
2Zoë Kravitz
Zoe Kravitz brought a little gift to the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party, stepping out in a long-sleeve LBD with a sheer back panel that offered a peek of booty cleavage. A bow on her back wrapped up the look.
3Julia Fox
Channeling her inner goddess, Julia Fox arrived at the Oscars after-party in a completely diaphanous skin-matching dress, complete with sewn-in hair inspired by Botticelli’s Birth of Venus.
4Olivia Wilde
In a night full of low necklines and high slits, Wilde was one of the nakedest, freeing the nip in a free-spirited ruffled Chloé dress that put her white lace underwear on display.
5Halle Berry
In May, the Oscar winner ended her eight-year Met Gala hiatus with a bang, wearing floor-length plunging LaQuan Smith stunner that was worth the wait. Styled with a black tuxedo-style jacket, the dress featured beaded and sheer paneling to show skin from décolletage to toe.
6Sydney Sweeney
Sydney Sweeney, 2025’s reigning queen of “naked dressing,” took things up a notch when she freed the nipple in a gathered chainmail shirtdress while being honored at Variety’s Power of Women event in October.
7Tyla
Tyla left Chanel in the studio and brought Jean Paul Gaultier to the red carpet, donning a skin-bearing knit dress during March’s Billboard Women in Music event, where she took home the Impact Award.
8Jenna Ortega
Jenna Ortega was best dressed at September’s Emmys ceremony in a red-carpet look that was more necklace than top, paired with a black skirt and a thigh-high slit.
9Dakota Johnson
This Materialist kicked off September’s New York Fashion Week in a high-necked, skin-bearing lace number featuring her black Fleur du Mal lingerie set.

11Millie Bobby Brown
Millie Bobby Brown capped off a press tour full of “naked” looks with her boldest yet, channeling the Upside Down in a dark, webbed plunging gown at the Stranger Things Season 5 premiere.
12Chrissy Teigen
Outshining basically everyone at the Grammys in February, the model’s gauzy tulle mermaid moment brought the drama.
13Charli XCX
There’s no need to guess: The Brat singer showed off her barely-there black underwear under a sheer Dilara Findikoglu dress and matching gauze veil.
14Zara Larsson
At the MTV VMAs in September, the singer was brighter than a ~midnight sun~ in her beaded fringe and rhinestone number completed with rhinestone underwear and flower appliqués.
15Sabrina Carpenter
The “Espresso” songstress brought Old Hollywood to the VMAs in a high-necked, sheer lace gown and purple feather boa.
16Kristen Stewart
Lace was the theme this year, and Stewart embraced it in a white frock with matching peeking black underwear at the SCAD Savannah Film Festival in October.
17Teyana Taylor
At the Time100 Next gala in October, the One Battle After Another star stunned in a bold menswear-inspired jacket paired with what might be the tiniest mesh halter-neck dress ever seen.
18Sienna Miller
At December’s Fashion Awards, the actor used her flowing sheer white Givenchy dress as an opportunity to announce her second pregnancy.
19Grace Van Patten
In October, the Tell Me Lies star took on the ostrich feather trend in a nipply, barely-there look featuring a strappy black thong at the Academy Museum Gala.
20Mikey Madison
Months after her Oscars best actress win, Madison competed for sheerest dress of the night at the Academy Museum Gala. The custom Dior look featured floral lace, ruffled bottom, and billowing sleeves, with a satin bow adding the perfect coquette touch.
