Celebrities like Elsa Hosk, Sydney Sweeney and Zoë Kravitz are hopping on summer’s hottest new trend: the exposed bra. While Hollywood stars and models have been rocking the statement style since at least spring, it’s really been taking off in the last few weeks.
Here are seven celebs who are paving the way for the exposed bra fashion trend.
1. Lily James

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 outfit also featured a daring slit at the back and she accessorised her look with a pair of white heels.
2. Charlize Theron

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. According to her Instagram, the 47-year-old’s Christian Dior outfit was styled by Leslie Fremar. The sheer, open look of the gown was one of the most daring outfits from the red-carpet premiere in Rome. Theron added a playful twist by accessorising with a leather beret.

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.
4. Sydney Sweeney

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.
5. Scarlett Johansson
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.

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.
7. Elsa Hosk

Hosk, 34, 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, appeared to literally 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.
