Ciara turned heads in a barely-there gown at the Vanity Fair Oscar after-party on Sunday.
The sparkly sheer halter dress with a plunging neckline was from Dundas’ fall 2023 collection and was paired with a black thong underneath. The “Better Thangs” singer arrived with her husband Russell Wilson at the event.

Her nearly naked appearance, however, drew criticism on social media, with some questioning whether it was appropriate for a married woman to show so much skin.
“I thought Ciara was married with children? “Where was her husband Russell when she wore this dress?” one person tweeted, while another wondered, “What happened to having ‘class?'”

So Ciara wore this dress to the Oscar’s. But with the Oscar’s being what it is, should we be surprised? I do wonder how Russell really feels though, with seeing his wife in public like this. What happened to having “class”? 🤔😮 pic.twitter.com/ixwARvDMJr

When it comes to Russell Wilson, Ciara, and the dress, there’s a very important part that many are leaving out…
She’s not your wife and that’s not your marriage.

But Ciara has the last laugh. She responded to her detractors on Wednesday with a hilarious TikTok video titled “POV: How I’m Pulling up to Vanity Fair Next Year,” which showed her wrapped in a white bed sheet pulled up to her neck. She poses for the camera before finally smiling and laughing.
“Selective outrage,” she captioned the video, which included a crying emoji.
