Journalism of Courage
Deepika Padukone turned up the heat in 2014 when she arrived at an award function in a risqué Gaurav Gupta number. A few months later, Ek Villain' actor Shraddha Kapoor was seen copying the same look for a photo shoot. Then there were the likes of Rihanna in an Adam Selman sheer gown and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in an Ellie Saab couture at the Cannes Film Festival. The ladies definitely paid homage to the fashion trend started by Marilyn Monroe in 1962 when she seductively sang happy birthday to John F Kennedy in Jean Louis gown. It looked like the trend was here to stay and actually it did! 2015 is definitely the year of the 'naked dress' trend and it will still be a go-to look for 2016, going by the trends that we have seen at New York's Bridal Fashion Week and other runways. Here's a look at the celebs who flaunted it with aplomb this year.
