Megan Fox showed off a daring outfit with an even more daring message.

On Tuesday, Fox, 37, posted a carousel of photos and videos of herself on Instagram in an ombré, orange dress from Jean Paul Gaultier.

The see-through, long-sleeve gown hugged Fox's figure, and it was covered in curved, vertical stripes that mimicked the shape of her body.

Kim Kardashian wore a black version of the gown in 2018.

Fox paired her take on the dress with an array of necklaces, an updo with front pieces framing her face styled by Dimitris Giannetos, glowy makeup from Jenna Kristina, and white nails by Nails of LA. Maeve Reilly styled the sultry ensemble.

Fox's post had nearly 2 million likes as of Wednesday. Despite the look's popularity, Fox pushed back against any potential body-shaming comments she could receive for it in her caption.

"Before you start angrily typing — those are not my nipples, calm down," she captioned the post.

"They are safely and completely hidden under nipple covers so no worries, we will all live another day without a rip in the space-time continuum," Fox went on to write.

Fox's nipple covers were visible through the dress, as were the high-waisted underwear she wore underneath it.

Fox is no stranger to wearing head-turning outfits. For instance, she wore a completely see-through Mugler dress to support Machine Gun Kelly at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards.

In 2021, Fox told Elle she typically wears daring looks because they fit her better, not because she naturally gravitates toward form-fitting outfits.

"So, my own personal outfits are more tomboy," she told Elle in October 2021. "But what people might not know about me is that I'm super petite. People do not realize how small I am. So I'm either in clothes that are really well-fitted or I just get overwhelmed by fabric, which happens very easily."

She added that she often wears tight outfits if she knows she will be photographed.

"I would love to put on a pair of parachute pants, but it just doesn't work on my body," she said to Elle.

Fox also isn't the only celebrity to speak out against critics of daring fashion in recent years.

In July 2022, Florence Pugh questioned why men are "so scared of breasts" after she wore a sheer dress, and in October 2022, Emily Ratajkowski defended herself for wearing a dress with a plunging neckline in 2016.
