Sydney Sweeney wore a sheer and very revealing dress to an industry event on Wednesday evening, prompting passionate and mixed reactions. 

The translucent, floor-length dress by Christian Cowan x Elias Matso was snug on the actor's chest, waist and hips — and made it clear that Sweeney had not worn a bra to Variety’s Power of Women event, of which she was one of the honourees. 

In the comment section of her Instagram post, some praised Sweeney's bravery, while others said such outfits sexualize women more than empower them.
