In the glamorous land of Beverly Hills, after the Oscars, the glitzy magic takes a turn for the scandalous. Celebrities didn’t just walk the red carpet; they practically glided onto it in barely-there outfits that put the ‘naked’ in naked fashion.

The trend hit a fever pitch at the Vanity Fair after-party, where guests seemingly decided that fabric is just an annoying barrier between them and admiration. Actress Olivia Wilde showcased bohemian chic in a sheer embroidered lace negligee by Chloé, combining skimpiness with what can only be described as an artsy pajama set. Because, why not?

Meanwhile, fellow star Julia Fox favored a more, shall we say, avant-garde approach, donning a nearly invisible wrap dress that prominently featured strategically placed hair extensions. Clearly, this was a dress designed for the bold, and those with a highly selective view of modesty.

Doja Cat, rocking a daringly low-fabric look, performed during a James Bond tribute while embodying a diamond-themed goddess, and then upped her fashion game at the Vanity Fair party in a custom Balmain gown. The designer reportedly spent 3,450 hours crafting this bedazzled masterpiece, inspired by an Oscar statue, which raises the question: can sheer brilliance distract from sheer fabric?

Kendall Jenner opted for a vintage Mugler piece made from rubber lace. That’s right; because why go for something timeless when you can give a nod to the absurd? Leslie Bibb, from “White Lotus,” braved the nude-sparkle trend, ensuring absolutely everyone noticed just how nude she could look.

Fashion experts, like Madeline Hirsch from InStyle, note that while this trend may feel fresh, it’s been simmering for quite some time. The naked trend has transformed from catwalk aspiration to red carpet reality, proving that celebrities and their stylists seem unable to resist a chance to flaunt more skin than fabric.

The after-drama of the Oscars offers a relaxed atmosphere where attendees shed the formalities of the ceremony, allowing them to embrace their near-naked selves. After all, what’s better than celebrating a night of achievements with a sartorial-level of vulnerability? Toss convention aside; it’s next-to-naked dressing that reigns supreme at these after-parties.
