Kourtney Kardashian mocked over 'ridiculous' naked dress: 'Horrible'

The Poosh founder is the latest celebrity to jump on the controversial fashion trend.

Kourtney Kardashian has divided fans online after she shared a gallery of snaps on Instagram posing in an unconventional optical illusion gown.

The Renaissance-inspired dress, which is designed by Balmain, features a nude body on the front that wraps around Kourtney’s figure and gives the impression that she is fully naked herself. Meanwhile, the back of the outfit has cherubs painted against a blue sky.

The eldest Kardashian sister showed off her look in what appears to be an elevator, with her dark hair styled in an updo with two strands framing her face.

“If you’d like to make a call please hang up and try again,” she captioned the post.
