Back in 1993, Kate Moss wearing a see-through slip dress sans bra with black underwear was incendiary. The best word to describe the British model's bare-it-all moment is seminal: It's forever memorialized on fashion's mood boards and helped to catapult the naked dress trend into the stratosphere. Thirty years later, a nude-illusion gown like Moss's still packs a look-at-me punch—like on the 2024 Grammys red carpet, where a range of reinvented naked dresses were on display.
Kicking things off in full force was Miley Cyrus in a custom John Galliano for Maison Margiela metal chain dress. Her gold mesh look was fitted with safety pin accents and featured condensed metal detailing in key areas, ensuring her naked dress remained only nearly naked. Dressed by stylist Bradley Kenneth, Cryus' look was completed with a pair of matching metal panties and Maison Margiela Tabi heels. Not only did the "Flowers" singer offer a fresh and artisanal take on the naked dress, but she also brought hooves to the red carpet.
