Celebrity Style
She walked so Kendall Jenner could run.
Anne Hathaway was already one of fashions biggest vanguards long beforeher on-screen makeover inThe Devil Wears Prada.
And Im not talking about her wearing merely chaotic Y2K trends likedresses over pants.
In the early aughts, few A-listers dared to bare breasts, lest they face public backlash.
For years, her risque, nip-forward looks flew relatively under the radar.
Little did Hathaway know that it would take another decade before the look would trend in Hollywood.
Now, the likes ofKendall Jenner, Emily Ratajkowski, andFlorence Pughdisplay breasts as frequently as they like.
And they have theWeCrashedstar to thank, in part.
Ahead, Hathaways most revealing ensembles that paved the way for bodily autonomy in Hollywood.
Inspired by the musicals 1920s setting, she embodied the flapper attitude of flouting conventions and dress codes.
She kept the look elegant with pointed pumps and a teeny white handbag.
Whatwasntof the era, however, was how transparent the dress was.
That was way ahead of its time.
A Sparkly LBD
She embraced the style again over a decade later.
Covered in embroidery, it featured a one-sided shoulder with a lone long sleeve.
Even the fringed hem featured an asymmetrical high-low cut, evocative of the 2010s.
It also featured thin diagonal mesh panels along one breast that partly exposed nip.
In Valentino couture, she fully embodied the punk ethos.
The ornate number was covered in beading that resembled a tigers stripes, and featured feather-trimmed long sleeves.
Her bleached blond pixie was but a rock star bonus.
An angel in Prada, she looked every bit the winner, too.
Her satin powder pink gown featured a sleeveless square neckline and an elegant column silhouette.
It also featured darts that poked out, giving it a pointed nip effect.
Though this dress is the least revealing on this list, it received backlash.
He says, You look beautiful.
Your nipples look pointy.
The red carpets about to close.
We gotta go.
Regardless of the reception, it was a style win in my book.
