With hashtags like #freethenips and #freethenipple, a braless moment or a tasteful nude is now considered a body-positive statement. In fact, nipples are now considered one of the hottest red carpet accessories ( we're looking at you, Kendall Jenner). Chaos would often ensue - because, after all, how dare this body part be visible to the world, right?įast forward to today, when fashion icons are putting their nipples on display with intention. But on occasion, the stick-ons and tape would fail, leaving nipples exposed to the spotlight and cameras. To prep for award shows and events, stars and their stylists would use bandaids, pasties, camisoles, even duct tape (um, ouch) to make sure that the nipples remained hidden. Once upon a time in Hollywood, nip slips were frowned upon – something that celebrities feared.
