The Top 12 Nakedest Looks At The Academy Museum Gala

You know what’s brat? Freeing the nipple. Charli XCX just did in a drop-waist leather ball gown from Saint Laurent.

Hailey Bieber leaned into the “undressed” look in a Schiaparelli gown inspired by undergarments worn by Old Hollywood greats. It featured a sheer “exposed” corset with exaggerated hips, flanked by a pointy cone bra on top and a slinky, thigh-high slitted skirt below.

Kaia Gerber’s white lace Givenchy by Sarah Burton gown proved that naked dressing can still look utterly elegant. The sophisticated neckline and attached cape were genius touches.

Another nipply look was courtesy of Grace Van Patten’s drapey off-the-shoulder dress with its cuffed feathery hem. To up the spicy ante, it was also G-string forward. No notes.

For better or worse, peplums are back, and they’re apparently chic enough to be red carpet-appropriate. Lupita Nyong’o’s granny panties-forward lace Chanel number featured ruffle trims on the neckline and waist, giving it a subtle peplum effect.

Greta Lee has been rocking Dior lately. Remember when, mere days after Jonathan Anderson debuted his first women’s collection for the brand early this month, she already wore it on the carpet? She leaned into the same Dior MO at last night’s fête in a gown with a plunging lace top and a billowing satin skirt.

America Ferrera delivered a glitzy take on naked dressing in a sleeved see-through gown gloriously embroidered with foliage patterns. To keep it extra elegant, she rocked the new reigning underwear style — granny panties — and frosted herself in diamonds.

Dreamy 3D white-and-yellow floral appliqués snaked up Kirsten Dunst’s sheer butter yellow halter gown. It was refreshingly ethereal.

Ever the glamorous diva, Eva Longoria stunned in a glistening Elie Saab number. Save for the strategically placed panels of pink sequins, the gown was fully sheer and exposed her skin-matching bodysuit underneath. Paired with a ritzy neck piece, this look is glam personified.

House of the Dragon star Milly Alcock rocked three trends in one gold-accented LBD: the hooded dress, the exposed undies, and the granny panties trends. She slayed all three.

Awards weren’t being handed out at this event, but if they were, Anora star Mikey Madison and her romantic custom Dior gown may have been up for another nomination: best dressed. Everything about it — from its billowing sleeves and delicate see-through lace to its flowy skirt with a sculptural hemline — was perfection.

Don’t be fooled — Rebecca Hall may have looked like she wore nothing but body paint, but it was, in fact, a trompe l’oeil moment from Thom Browne. The painted effect, which featured the naked female form, was printed on a bodysuit so sheer that the skin-matching fabric was practically undetectable. To keep focus on her torso, she paired it with a simple fitted black skirt.
