Recently, the likes of Nensi Dojaka, Supriya Lele and Bella Hadid’s archival wardrobe have been championing the return of the naked dress. But for a date night with Justin Bieber at celebrity hotspot Nobu in Los Angeles, Hailey Bieber opted to try a new trend out for size.

The model, who’s recently been travelling with her musician husband on his tour around the states as she awaits the release of her much-anticipated beauty line, Rhode, wore a pair of sheer lace trousers (see also: naked trousers), which have been swirling on social media in recent months, as well as tried and tested IRL on fellow model – and Bieber’s friend – Gigi Hadid. 

Hadid, of course, wore a pair of custom-made Dion Lee trousers in white, made in a floral lace pattern to celebrate her 27th birthday at a celebrity-filled party in NYC last month. She paired the on-trend pants with a matching corset top and a long flowing coat made of the same fabric, while wearing loads of pearl necklaces and her freshly platinum blonde hair pulled back:

Bieber’s pair of pants, which are new season Coperni, are the same cut: high-waisted and flared, but hers have a silver, metallic sheen, rather than a classic, clean white. They, too, have an added split-cuff, which open to show her strappy black heels that match her dark accessories: an oversized motorcycle jacket and a black bag. Underneath her jacket, she wore a tiny white crop top to accentuate her statement bottom half. 

Bieber wore her brunette hair loose and kept her beauty look minimal, while her streetwear-loving beau wore a green baseball cap, a pair of light-coloured baggy pants and a tartan shirt undone. The perfect date night look (and one that’s much easier to wear than the naked dress — no matter how much we love her, the girl’s not practical).

This isn’t the first time Bieber has worn sheer trousers of late, either. Back in March for a Saint Laurent pre-Oscars party, the 25-year-old wore a cropped black leather jacket with a tiny white tank top underneath. On the bottom, she donned sheer black lace tights that exposed her high-waisted briefs YSL briefs. She topped off the show-stopping look with black pumps that featured crystal detailing on the toes and her favourite controversial trend: nighttime sunglasses.

Gorgeous.
