Gabrielle Union is the latest A-lister to rock the super-racy flossing trend, as everyone from Megan Fox to Olivia Culpo to the new Mrs Affleck have given it their best shot too! What is the flossing trend, you ask? It has nothing to do with the dentist (phew) but it could be just as terrifying if you’re scared of flashing the flesh, because this trend is *not* for the faint hearted!

It does, however, have something to do with dental floss – kind of – as it involves wearing teeny tiny pieces of fabric that are seemingly held together by something reminiscent of dental floss. The smaller the pieces, and the more skin on show, the better! And extra points for multiple pieces of dental floss in one outfit, especially if it goes in different directions! Here are just a few of our favorite – and the most sizzling – A-list takes on the trend…

Age-defying and gravity-defying are two terms that sum up the 49-year-old actress’s (yes, you read that number right!) recent take on the flossing trend, which she dutifully shared to her Instagram account on August 2nd. We can’t believe that the 10 Things I Hate About You star will turn 50 this year (talk about ageing in reverse!) and we also can’t work out how her light green chartreuse Kwame Adusei dress is staying on, either! Gabrielle’s seductive barely-there cut-out dress with criss-cross halter-neck dental-floss-reminiscent straps is blowing our minds!

Megan Fox

The 36-year-old Jennifer’s Body star is no stranger to flaunting her fabulous figure in one daring ‘fit after another! We are still obsessed with the Nensi Dojaka dress she wore to the premiere of fiancé Machine Gun Kelly’s new Hulu documentary, Life In Pink, which appeared to be held together by the tiniest bit of dental floss. Was there any more secret, hidden support? We guess we’ll never know!

Of course, the 53-year-old Marry Me actress was going to embrace the flossing trend. With a body as smokin’ as hers, it would practically be a crime not to! For a performance of “On My Way” on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon back in February this year, J-Lo wore an ab-baring custom white piece by Grace Ling, which featured a deconstructed blazer with thin, floss-like straps connecting it to a slinky maxi skirt. Six months later, and we’re still just as floored by it!

Olivia Culpo

The 30-year-old former Miss Universe is quite a big fan of the flossing trend, having worn it on several occasions over the past few months. But our favorite piece definitely has to be the jaw-dropping black Mônot dress she wore back in March this year (it was a similar design to Kendall Jenner’s controversial wedding guest dress) which sent fans into an absolute frenzy. To this day, we still don’t know how that dress was held together!

We are regularly blown away by the Germany’s Next Top Model judge’s outfits, be it on screen, on red carpets, or even her off-duty looks. But one of our sartorial highlights of the year has to be the bright yellow Dundas dress the 49-year-old model shared on Instagram back in January, which featured long sleeves and provocative slits on the side and at the back, held together by barely-there pieces of dental floss. We are still speechless!
