Bold fashion at Oscars after-parties!
Stars shined at the Oscars, but they were hardly present at the after-parties! This year, not only glamour dominated the red carpet, but the nude fashion trend also completely dominated. At events like the Vanity Fair party, celebs proved that “less is more.”
Actress-director Olivia Wilde wore a transparent, embroidered lace negligee designed by Chloé, which featured metallic ends and embroidered lace lingerie panties—totally hot and a trendsetter! Celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner also grabbed everyone’s attention with their bold and stunning looks. This year became memorable not only for films but also for fashion statements!

Wilde’s outfit had a beautiful bohemian charm while actress Julia Fox redefined boldness. She was seen in a transparent wrap dress with the only adornment being her strategically placed hair extensions. The look caught everyone’s attention.
Doja Cat sang “Diamonds Are Forever” during the James Bond tribute segment and her presence shone like a diamond. She then appeared at the Vanity Fair party in a stunning custom Balmain strapless gown with shimmering fringes. The masterpiece was crafted by 39 artisans in 3,450 hours.
The dress was inspired by an Oscar trophy and was crafted with hand-threaded glass beads in nine different shades of gold. In this bold wave of fashion, many other celebs made headlines with their experimental looks. This year’s red carpet was not just glamorous, it was revolutionary!
Vanity Fair After-Party: When Kendall Jenner and Leslie Bibb spread bold glamour!
Kendall Jenner entered the Vanity Fair after-party in the iconic 1992 Mugler outfit and grabbed everyone’s attention in black lace. This stunning dress was actually made of rubber, which made her look even more attractive. At the same time, “White Lotus” actress Leslie Bibb dazzled everyone with her beauty by adopting the nude-sparkle trend.
Although this trend may seem new, fashion experts believe that embracing nudity has been going on on the red carpet for years. Recently, the appearance of Bianca Censori and Ye on the Grammy carpet increased the buzz about this trend.
InStyle Fashion Features Director Madeline Hirsch also shared her opinion on this. “Although it started on the runway, the naked dress trend has been inspired by celebrity red carpet moments. Stars and their stylists can’t resist it,” she said in an email.
She also said that sheer lace will be the most prominent form of this trend in 2025, and that’s no surprise because bohemian style is making a comeback in the fashion world. This new look on the red carpet has already started a bold fashion revolution!
Oscars after-parties: When fashion crosses traditional boundaries!
Although many Oscar-attending stars stick to traditional and classic looks during the ceremony, the after-party is a completely different affair. According to fashion expert Madeline Hirsch, “This is the time when stars can let loose. The after-party has less red carpet formality, which allows stars to go bold.” This is why nude fashion has become one of the most talked about after-party trends.
However, not everyone is a fan of the trend. Melissa Rivers, a famous fashion commentator and daughter of Joan Rivers, expressed her displeasure with the trend. “The truth is that this is not a new trend. ‘Naked fashion’ resurfaces every few years, but this year? It was disgusting. Frankly, I’m completely bored of it—full stop!”
There has always been a battle between bold and classic styles in the fashion world. Some stars consider it a means of self-expression and self-expression, while others consider it too pretentious and incongruous. But one thing is for sure—The Oscars after-party proved once again that in the world of fashion the limits are limited only by the imagination!
