Brooks Nader made a statement Wednesday night at a CFDA event opening New York Fashion Week, stepping out in Manhattan in a sheer black lace midi dress. The 29-year-old Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model paired the look with black undergarments, pointed-toe pumps and a clutch, keeping her jewelry minimal so the dress did the talking. The sheer trend keeps showing up on runways and red carpets, and Nader wore it with plenty of confidence.
Her personal life has stayed in the headlines since she split from Dancing with the Stars partner Gleb Savchenko in April 2025. Nader accused him of cheating on her Freeform series Love Thy Nader, and Savchenko denies the allegation. When asked about getting even, she joked that she gets her revenge in other ways and haunts her exes with billboards all over LA and New York. She also said she wishes him well and is glad she no longer has to deal with that awkward interaction.
Meanwhile, there’s a newer family chapter unfolding: Nader’s younger sister, Sarah Jane, is set to compete on the upcoming season of Dancing with the Stars, and she won’t be paired with Savchenko. That means the Nader name is heading back to the ballroom on a happier note. Whether you follow fashion, reality TV, or just a good comeback story, this one covers a lot of ground. So what do you think: would you ever wear a sheer dress like that, or is it one for the runway only? Tell us in the comments.
