Cannes 2016: Nearly-Naked Dresses Are Back Again

Blake Lively, Bella Hadid and many more.

Once again, the nearly-naked dress trend is ruling supreme - with dramatic cut-outs and barely-there gowns the order of the evening at Cannes.

The 69th annual film festival kicked off on Wednesday 11 May, with a whole host of stars rocking up in their finest flesh-flashing red carpet-wear.

From Blake Lively's bedazzled Atelier Versace, to Bella Hadid's second-skin Fawaz Gruosi, we round up the hottest styles spotted at Cannes so far.
