Turning up to the MTV VMAs half-naked is nothing new, yet nobody has ever come close to rivaling the infamous 'naked' dress that Rose McGowan's wore to the awards in 1998. Until now that is.
So here they are: this year's varying degrees of nakedness, from nearly naked to very naked.
1.
Kim Kardashian
Cleavage
In at number one is Kim Kardashian with a straightforward, and arguably most modest, approach to nudity - the classic cleavage.
2.
Jessie J
Backless
Probably the classiest form of semi-nudity, a backless dress can be sexy but still demure. Beware of wardrobe malfunctions: don’t forget the tit-tape.
3.
Miley Cyrus
The crop top
After last year's effort (who could forget that nude PVC ensemble, not to mention twerk-gate), this is a much more family-friendly ensemble for the headline-snatcher.
4.
Rita Ora
The thigh split
It’s red, it’s silky and it’s split to the waist. Oh and it was backless too. We bet Calvin Harris is kicking himself.
5.
Taylor Swift
Legs
Up next is Taylor Swift, with a not-so-subtle approach to bare legs. Although, if we had legs like that, we so would too.
6.
Amber Rose
Top-to-toe
And the prize for most inappropriate display of nudity goes to Amber Rose, who decided to leave everything but her thong and a few chains in the dressing room this year. Do not try this at home.
