In 2014, Rihanna wore a sheer, Swarovski-crystal-encrusted Adam Selman gown to the CFDA. She regrets it though, but only because she didn’t wear a blinged-out thong, she wore a nude panty.

A lot can be said about why the naked trend is popular, but one of the reasons is people have become way more liberal in their dressing. Also, such outfits spark conversation and controversy. Finally, there is also the belief that a woman’s body is hers and should not be sexualised.
