Tate McRae is making an impression on New York City, this time for her outfit choice. On September 5, the Canadian pop star attended Justin Bieber’s Swag II release party at the Twenty Two Hotel, wearing a chic black mini sheer dress that left little to the imagination. The naked dress, which revealed a bright purple bra and matching underwear, quickly became one of the most talked-about looks of the night.
The lingerie-inspired ensemble couldn’t have been more fitting. One of McRae’s hit singles is titled “Purple Lace Bra”—a detail fans were quick to point out on social media. By styling a sheer mini with coordinating lingerie, McRae leaned into the ongoing naked dress trend that has dominated celebrity fashion this year, proving she’s just as much of a fashion aficionado as she is a chart-topping performer.
The appearance came fresh off the heels of her two sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden on September 3 and 4, further cementing McRae’s rising influence in the entertainment industry. If her MSG performances established her as one of pop’s brightest young talents, her sheer, naked party look confirmed her as one of its boldest fashion risk-takers.
With celebrities like Bianca Censori, Dua Lipa, and Rihanna embracing sheer and lingerie-inspired dressing, McRae’s naked dress moment at Bieber’s exclusive event signals she’s right in step with the industry’s most risqué trends. And when it comes to pairing a purple bra with a sheer black mini, McRae proves few can pull it off with the same effortless confidence.
