- Exposing your underwear is turning into one of the hottest red carpet trends of 2023.
- Hollywood stars and models have been rocking the statement style since at least the spring.
For the UK premiere of her film "What's Love got to do with it?" Lily James rocked a sheer neon-green dress that exposed a strappy white bra.

The "Cinderella" star, 34, credited Miu Miu for her eye-catching bedazzled lime green gown in an Instagram post from the premiere. The sheer dress, which revealed an accompanying white bra, also featured a daring slit at the back. She accessorized it with a pair of white heels.
In similar fashion, Charlize Theron dared to show off her black bralette that coordinated with her all-black ensemble at the "Fast X" premiere in Rome.

Kravitz, 34, proved that exposing your bra can add an edgy touch to a sophisticated ensemble.
For the Tiffany & Co. NYC Flagship store reopening in April, she paired her silver sparkly bra with an open-buttoned long-sleeved white shirt, a black pencil skirt, and black pumps, designed by Saint Laurent, according to Elle.
"Euphoria" star Sydney Sweeney wore a bra that was a deeper shade over her powder-blue silky dress at Cannes Film Festival.

Like James, Sweeney credited Miu Miu with her take on the exposed bra trend in an Instagram post taken behind the scenes from her appearance at Cannes Film Festival on May 21.
Her silky powder-blue dress revealed a bra that was slightly darker in shade. She paired the ensemble with white platform heels and kept her hair in a loose half-up, half-down style.
Scarlett Johansson expertly combined the 2023 exposed bra trend with the ever-popular bubblegum-pink style on the red carpet at Cannes.

One of the biggest trends to take over the red carpet in 2022 was celebrities rocking bubblegum-pink outfits. And during her appearance at the "Asteroid City" red carpet premiere at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, Johansson, 38, took last year's trend up a notch by incorporating an ivory-white exposed bra.
According to Cosmopolitan, Johansson's pale-pink dress was custom-made by Prada.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley put her own twist on the exposed bra trend in a Grecian Fendi couture gown.

The former Victoria's Secret angel, 36, wore a summery ensemble that incorporated several daring features including an exposed bra and a thigh-high slit.
According to PopSugar, the couture dress was designed by Fendi – it had ruched detailing and was cinched in at the waist with a silver metallic hook.
Elsa Hosk took the trend to new heights in a sculptural Viktor & Rolf couture gown that exposed a nude bustier corset beneath.

Hosk shut down the red carpet with her dynamic Viktor & Rolf couture dress that was basically made of two separate ensembles. The powder-blue gown, which featured a tulle skirt, literally appeared to fall off of her to reveal a light-pink bustier corset beneath.
According to the official Viktor & Rolf Instagram account, Hosk was styled in the brand's "Late Stage Capitalist Waltz" dress by celebrity stylist Dani Michelle, who previously worked with Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner.
