After leather leotards, the latest eye-catching trend which is gaining ground with pop stars is the faux-nude look.

After Shakira's turn in a skin-toned leotard for her music video She Wolf caused a stir, it is now the controversy-courting popstar Lady Gaga who has stepped out wearing a similar outfit.

The Poker Face singer, who paired her leotard with nothing but a white jacket and high heels, appeared to be completely naked as she stepped out yesterday in Copenhagen.
