Rita Ora Takes the Naked Dress to Another Level in Daring Gown, Matching Thong, and Fish Scale Makeup
Rita Ora has never been one to shy away from a polarising outfit, and her look for The Fashion Awards 2022 might just be her most daring yet. The singer arrived at the Royal Albert Hall on Monday, 5 Dec. for the stylish event wearing a totally sheer red naked dress with matching thong underneath. The dress was straight from the Nensi Dojaka spring/summer 23 runway and included a red bra with metal hearts added in the centre. Totally sheer red fabric, with a pink trimming, then fell to her ankles, revealing a matching red thong underneath. While the naked trend has certainly been a red carpet favourite of late, Ora took it to a whole new level with this barely-there ensemble. A simple pair of strappy red heels completed the red hot look. While her dress was perhaps the most attention-grabbi...

Dua Lipa, Rochelle Humes, and More of the Best Dressed at the 2021 British Fashion Awards
Pop star Dua Lipa, presenter Maya Jama, and actor Gabrielle Union were some of the stars that walked the 2021 Fashion Awards red carpet. Hosted at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Monday, 29 Nov., this year’s event celebrates fashion at the intersection of entertainment and culture. Fashion designers, models, and industry insiders kicked off the festive season in slinky, cut-out dresses, luxe silk-satin gowns with corset bodices, strapless dresses with opera gloves, jacquard and jewel-covered suits. We’re especially loving the mermaid-hem gowns worn by Addison Rae, Munroe Bergdorf, and emerging models Deba Hekmat and Mona Tougaard.
