Lady Eliza Spencer embraces the ‘naked dress’ trend in plunging gown

Lady Eliza Spencer took to Instagram at the weekend, sharing her latest stylish look. Wearing a flesh-toned draped dress, the 34-year-old posed for Luxury London and looked beautiful in her plunging ensemble, which we think you’ll agree nods to the prolific ‘naked’ dress trend.

The flesh-toned hue of the dress gave an ethereal finish, and she accessorised the look with classic gold jewellery.

What is the ‘naked’ dress trend?

Although many cite Kate Moss as the true inventor of the dress, donning her now-famous see-through slip to a party in the early ’90s, the trend was reignited in 2025.

After Margot successfully brought back the trend, a myriad of celebrities have donned the seemingly risqué dress, which creates the illusion of bare skin with either tonal colours or strategically placed material such as lace and ruffles.

The 35-year-old model, who is signed with the Storm modelling agency, turned heads in a bold laced dress in September, which had a plunging neckline. The backless, see-through style also artfully showed off her underwear, and she teamed the daring ensemble with a pair of towering high heels.

Tips on how to pull off the ‘naked’ dress look

As a fashion editor who has watched the naked dress trend become a hugely popular trend, these are my tips for making it work for you:

A flesh-coloured undergarment is your best friend, as it gives the body full coverage. If you wear a sheer dress or a netted design on the top, a piece like this will give the wearer full coverage.

The whole ‘dress’ doesn’t have to be naked – if you want to nod to the trend without going full-on naked mode, try a sheer sleeve or neckline.

Great supportive underwear is key – particularly if your dress is sheer. An uplifting bra and comfortable underwear make all the difference and can really streamline the silhouette.
