As the unseasonal heatwave continues, many are struggling to avoid feeling like a “frazzled English woman” in the rising temperatures. However, some celebrities are managing to style out the heatwave with enviable ease. Emma Watson looks summery and laid-back in a bandeau crop top and orange skirt, while Hailey Bieber, Doja Cat, and Kendall Jenner have sought refuge at various beaches, sporting teeny bikinis and minimal clothing. Yet, perhaps the most innovative adaptation to the heat has come from Rita Ora, who has been living her best life in Sydney while demonstrating how to beat the heat with serious style – by just wearing underwear and a light, sheer dress.
Ora is known for being a proponent of the naked dressing trend and her latest outfit is both jaw-dropping and practical for hot weather. For the occasion of Australia radio presenter Kyle Swandilands’ birthday party, she wore a tiny red lace bra and knickers set under a matching sheer, plunging dress. Designed by luxury Australian brand Common Hours, the ensemble is giving off serious sexiness vibes while also providing a practical solution for the heat. With a loose silhouette and light, breezy lace material, it’s akin to going out in underwear and nothing else. Ora’s look is truly ingenious, and her fans are already scouring the internet for similar outfits.
This is just the latest example of Ora’s penchant for “naked” dressing. In the latest edition of Australian Vogue, she wore a see-through fishnet gown while posing alongside her husband Taika Waititi. And who could forget her lingerie-inspired look for this year’s Met Gala?
In conclusion, Rita Ora is demonstrating how to beat the heat in serious style. Her recent appearance at a party in Sydney has shown that it’s possible to wear just underwear and a sheer dress and still be the best-dressed person in the room. Ora has a talent for pushing the boundaries of fashion, turning underwear into outerwear and making see-through dresses look chic. Her fans will undoubtedly be looking to her for further inspiration as the summer continues.
