29 of the most daring outfits Jennifer Lopez has ever worn
Jennifer Lopez is known for her glamorous looks, and is widely considered a style icon.
She's experimented with daring fashion over the years, like sheer dresses and denim boots.
Lopez also seems to be a fan of see-through pantsuits, cutouts, and bold prints.
In 1998, Jennifer Lopez attended the CFDA Awards in an eye-catching ensemble.
Lopez was way ahead of the "naked trend," and wore a sheer, black dress with sparkling details at the CFDA awards, which is known as the "Oscars of American fashion." She also donned a matching shawl and burgundy lipstick.
At the VH1 Vogue Fashion Awards in 1999, Lopez dazzled in a sparkling long-sleeved dress.
The shapeless ensemble was covered in sparkles and featured a collar that extended into a plunging neckline. She wore the look just two months after releasing her hit single, "Waiting for Tonight," and paired it with strappy sandals and diamond jewelry.
For the same event in 2000, Lopez switched up her style.
The following year, the multihyphenate star opted for a printed jumpsuit with bold accessories. Lopez wore multiple bracelets, a long necklace, golden scarf, and an oversized belt.
Lopez also wore one of her most iconic — and wild — looks that year.
At the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards in 2000, Lopez stepped out wearing a green, floral-print Versace dress. It stood out as a result of its sheer fabric and plunging neckline that reached below her belly button.
Today, Lopez's dress is known as one of the most iconic dresses of all time. As INSIDER previously reported, it even spawned the creation of Google Image Search, as people were constantly searching for photos of Lopez from the event, which she attended with her then-boyfriend, Diddy.
In 2001, the star donned a bedazzled bra and matching jeans during an MTV event at the Super Bowl.
Ahead of a performance at the event, Lopez looked patriotic in the red bra, which was covered in jewels. She also donned bedazzled, bootcut jeans, square-toed boots, and a glimmering heart belt.
At the Kids' Choice Awards in 2004, Lopez wore low-rise pants as part of a mismatched look.
While much of the ensemble is questionable today, Lopez's cropped jacket, capri pants, and knit beret were all trendy at the time.
She was also nominated for "Favorite Female Singer" at the event alongside stars like Beyonce and Ashanti but lost to Hilary Duff.
Lopez chose a '60s-inspired look while visiting Splashlight Studios in 2005.
For this event, which took place shortly after Lopez's brief hiatus in 2004, the star wore Louboutin heels and a black dress made from lace. She also donned a '60s-inspired bob, which looked far different than her typically long locks.
At the 2007 Echo Music Awards in Germany, Lopez stepped out in a unique design.
Her red-carpet look featured one long sleeve, a bedazzled neckline, and giant pockets. She also wore a layered necklace with the dress.
Two days later, Lopez experimented with another daring style.
At a release party for the launch of her Spanish album "Cuomo Ama Una Mujer," Lopez covered her black bra and matching pants with an embellished knit overlay.
While at the Golden Globe Awards in 2009, Lopez looked radiant in a glimmering gown.
Her golden dress featured a halter-style top and plunging neckline. It was also backless, and wrapped at her waist.
Lopez then wore an asymmetrical gown at the 2010 Grammy Awards.
The left side of Lopez's gown was white and flowing, while the right side was gold and resembled a minidress. She wore the ensemble shortly before joining the "American Idol" cast as a judge.
Lopez also posed on the red carpet at the 2010 World Music Awards.
Lopez experimented with a sparkly, tiger-print dress for the event, which was covered in rows of black, orange, and yellow feathers across its skirt.
At Wembley Stadium in 2011, Lopez donned head-to-toe snakeskin.
Lopez attended Capital FM's Summertime Ball wearing a long-sleeved minidress and thigh-high boots — both of which were snakeskin patterned.
Lopez took inspiration from snakes more literally in 2012.
While at a press conference in California, Lopez wore a multicolored dress with long sleeves. The garment also had a bejeweled snake attached, which wrapped around her neck and extended down her skirt.
In 2013, Lopez looked glamorous in a sparkling blue gown.
She wore the long-sleeved dress — which featured a sparkling blue floral pattern over a mesh panel — to the amfAR Inspiration Gala in New York City.
A few months later, Lopez attended the Human Rights Campaign National Dinner wearing a daring dress with sheer panels.
Much of Lopez's maroon dress was made from velvet. It also featured sheer sections covered in branch-like patterns.
Lopez rocked a red ensemble at the Billboard Music Awards in 2014.
Lopez walked the red carpet wearing the bold leotard-style dress, which was covered by a matching sheer skirt.
At the 2014 American Music Awards, Lopez's glamorous look featured a bold detail.
Lopez arrived at the event wearing a baby pink dress made from silk, which wrapped around her torso to create bold cutouts and show off her toned abs. She also wore sparkling heels and a slicked-back hairstyle.
In 2015, Lopez continued to experiment with the "naked trend" — long before the Kardashians.
At the Billboard Music Awards, Lopez wore a showstopping sheer dress with a white pattern and a daring cutout that revealed her entire torso. She also wore minimal jewelry and styled her hair in a long blowout.
She also turned heads in a blue gown at the 2015 American Music Awards.
Lopez hosted the event and wore multiple outfits throughout the night — including a silvery blue dress that tied at the front into an intricate knot. The detail created multiple cutouts across her body and even extended to the back of her dress.
Lopez ditched dresses for an "American Idol" event in 2016, opting for a stunning pantsuit instead.
She wore the head-to-toe glittering red ensemble to the "American Idol XV" Finalists party in California, pairing the look with a bold pair of matching pumps.
Lopez attended the event one month after "Shades of Blue," an NBC show that she starred in and helped produce, aired to millions of viewers.
Lopez rocked one of her most skin-baring looks to date at the Billboard Latin Music Awards in 2017.
Though her black gown had long sleeves and a floor-length skirt, it was covered in dozens upon dozens of intricate cutouts.
The multihyphenate star tried the "no pants" trend in 2018.
While on the streets of Manhattan, Lopez wore a long, button-down shirt with denim boots from Versace's "Resort 2019" collection. The shoes looked like a pair of jeans, even featuring belts around the top of each boot.
At the 2019 Met Gala, Lopez stunned the crowd in a plunging dress that was dripping in jewels.
Lopez also paired her sparkling Versace gown with a headpiece made from similar jewels for the event's "Camp" theme.
She then walked a Versace runway in a new version of her famous green dress.
She proved that she could still rock the gown 20 years later as she closed the fashion show.
The newer version of the dress was sleeveless with a plunging, V-shaped neckline. It also had thin cutouts across her hips, and a loose skirt that fanned out as she walked.
To kick off 2020, Lopez walked the Golden Globes red carpet in a tricolored ball gown and massive bows.
The strapless Valentino design had a gold, wrap-style bodice, a full white skirt, and a giant green bow attached to her waist with a smaller gold one on top of it.
She also wore a braided updo and more than 145 carats of Harry Winston emeralds and diamonds.
And at the 2021 Venice Film Festival, she stepped out in a glamorous gown with a daring neckline.
The white Georges Hobeika gown had two sets of straps: a white pair that sat on her shoulders and a string of crystals that wrapped around her neck like a halter.
The latter piece also created its deep U-shaped neckline, which mirrored the shape of the gown's thigh-high slit.
For the "Halftime" premiere in 2022, the actor donned a high-neck dress that was half velvet, half mesh.
Tom Ford designed the statement dress, which had panels of velvet strategically placed across its mesh lining. The latter fabric created see-through spots at Lopez's thighs, arms, and chest.
Lopez wore the look with a high ponytail and diamond earrings.
This year, Lopez wore one of her most daring dresses while visiting Las Vegas, Nevada.
The black David Koma dress had a high neckline covered in rhinestones, which mirrored those that lined the bodice strap that covered her chest.
Below that sat a long slit in the middle of its bodice, and a thigh-high slit was cut in its skirt.
