Fashion experts have announced that they’ve had ‘enough’ of the naked looks after a slew of A-listers showed up to the 2024 Met Gala in nearly-nude ensembles.
Dubbed by some as the biggest night in fashion, every year on the first Monday of May, a series of A-listers gather in their most extravagant looks for a lavish party hosted by Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
But this year, some of the stars shocked the world when they opted for see-through or barely-there outfits – including Emily Ratajkowski, Jennifer Lopez, Rita Ora, and Doja Cat – and some fashion industry professionals are not fans of the latest trend.
Afterwards, X, formerly Twitter, was flooded with posts slamming the surplus of risqué looks at the coveted ball.

One person pointed out that fashion is ‘all about wearing clothes’ and not the lack there-of, while another said the stars were ‘relying’ on the shock value of the nude looks and ‘falling short.’
A fashion blogger who goes by ModernGurlz online tweeted, while reposting a snap of Jennifer’s look, ‘We need to ban glittery naked dresses from the Met Gala.’
A woman named Linda who writes ‘fashion reviews and news’ agreed with her, replying, ‘Like, enough.’
A professional tailor for Broadway, film, and TV, named Alexa, then chimed in, writing, ‘I don’t want to disparage how much work these dresses take when done well but I’m over the naked dress as a concept.
‘It’s a just a dress with some hidden corsetry and people find it appealing because the shiny activates the magpie brain.’
‘IDK… call me crazy, but isn’t fashion and dressing-up for ball all about wearing clothes? Why go naked to the Met Gala?’ a street style photographer named M.C. O’Connor asked.
Ellice Ellis, a producer, podcast host, and culture writer, stated, ‘A lot of people (Kim [Kardashian], Emrata, JLo) are relying on their typical red carpet tricks tonight and it’s falling short.
‘If a theme open to multiple interpretations leaves you with nothing better than a cinched waist, naked dress, or showgirl ensemble, it’s time to rethink your approach.’

‘It is meant to be a showcase for creativity. It is meant to demonstrate how the fashion industry really is a great art form, which these days is wholly inclusive of different shapes, races, genders and ages,’ she said of the event.
‘Its purpose is to raise funds for the museum’s work… but this year’s frocks, and the bodies shoehorned into them, have in one fell swoop managed to set the cause of responsible, female-friendly fashion back by more than 100 years.
‘I am talking about the rubber-stamping by powerful stars of the belief that a woman has to be naked in order to be noticed.
‘That the kind of publicity that actresses, models and talented individuals need and want can only be attained through self-exposure of the most literal kind.’
She added, ‘These women have careers, fame, money and fans, so I wonder, scrolling the parade of pubic bones, what makes them go out dressed like this? Not one looks joyous or comfortable.
‘Why, after the decade of MeToo, after the focus on shattering the equal pay ceiling in Hollywood, do the most powerful, beautiful women in the world want so willingly, wantonly to humiliate themselves?’
TV host, author and comedian Lisa ‘Kennedy’ Montgomery, on the other hand, wondered if Doja Cat was ‘auditioning to be an extra on Kanye West’s porn shoot.’
