Heidi Klum Slammed As ‘Desperate’ For Wearing A ‘Naked’ Sheer Dress To Paris Fashion Week
Heidi Klum, 52, proved she can still rival the younger generation when it comes to bold fashion choices.
She attended the VETEMENTS Womenswear Spring/Summer 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week on Friday, Oct. 3, accompanied by her 21-year-old daughter, Leni Klum, and wowed in a daring ensemble.
Initially, Klum appeared in a gray, floor-length blazer jacket, but she later removed it to reveal a long-sleeve see-through dress in gray with delicate lace detailing that perfectly hugged her figure. The revealing outfit showcased her chest and high-cut white underwear.

She completed the look with pointed-toe beige heels, loose wavy hair, and a smokey glam makeup look. When she smiled, Heidi revealed gold grills that covered her teeth. Leni, also a model, opted for a chic cropped black skirt suit.
The internet blasted the Project Runway host on social media when they saw the daring look.
“Wow. I feel embarrassed for her,” one wrote. A second said, “Just because you think you can doesn’t necessarily mean you should.” A third commented, “There is a line between fashion and trash. I won’t say more.” A fourth wrote, “Sad and embarrassing.” Someone else said, “She is beautiful, but the sheer trend is tasteless, and this whole ensemble looks old.” Another person quipped, “She’s getting desperate.”
“So tired of the ‘Oh my god, she wore a sheer dress!’ They’re all wearing naked dresses. It’s not new or interesting,” said another person. One user wrote, “It’s crazy to me that she would wear that outfit to an event her daughter is also attending.”

Heidi Klum Opens Up About ‘Body-Shaming’
A glance at Heidi’s Instagram shows she’s never shy about showing skin, whether in a bikini or her outfits on Project Runway and Germany’s Next Top Model.
Her revealing looks come alongside her statement in PEOPLE’s July cover story, where she said she has nothing to hide as she embraces aging.
“I’ve been photographing nude or in lingerie since 1992, way before Instagram,” the mother of four said. “So for me, it’s nothing new. For the past 15 years, other people have now been doing what I’ve been doing for 30 years. Instead of being in my little bottoms in a magazine, I’m on Instagram. It’s the same thing.”
She continued, “For me to be older, it doesn’t matter. I don’t have this age-shaming or body-shaming thing. I feel like everyone should do what they want to do. I like to run around sexy—even now at 52.”
