The lesser known actress of the new film "Thor- The Dark World" stole all the limelight in her almost-naked red carpet dress that revealed so much that it left nothing to the imagination. "Thor: The Dark World" premiere event in Los Angeles led to Jaimie Alexander's rise in popularity due to her risqué gown that became the talk of the town and centre of attraction.

Red carpets in tinsel town are usually the highlights of the events. They hold the defining moments of what is going to follow in the event along with the trends being followed and being set.

This is not the first time when an oh-so-revealing dress became the highlight of a red carpet welcome. Before "Thor: The Dark World" actress Jaimie Alexander gained prominence due to her dress there have been many more who grabbed the eyeballs with their sheer, see-through, and almost-naked dresses.

The "Wrecking Ball" singer Miley Cyrus chose to wear a mesh dress with almost nothing underneath on iHeartRadio Music Festival Day 2. While Jaimie Alexander decided to step into a black see through dress on "Thor: The Dark World" premiere, we had Gwyneth Paltrow worn something similar with a little twist in colour and shape of the dress. She dressed in a black and white red carpet gown that revealed a lot of her figure during the "Iron Man 3" Premiere held at El Captain Theatre in California.

In 1998 MTV Video Music Awards, Rose McGowan made a jaw dropping entry on the red carpet in her dress that barely covered her. She wore a mesh dress that displayed her bums and back quite in open.

Another sheer dress that made a history of the red carpet welcomes was J-Lo's Versace dress with a supremely plunging neckline and sheer chiffon showing off her body to die for. Songstress caught the limelight with this dress in 42nd Annual Grammy Awards function in 2000.

And when British model Kelly Brook arrived at the UK Premiere of the film "Snatch" in her embellished pink Julien Macdonald gown, the revealing attire had heads turn at the event. The dress that will be remembered by all had Kelly Brook flaunting her curvy body.

Model and Actress Erin Wasson also grabbed the spotlight during MTV Video Music Awards in 2013 in her almost naked and oh-so-revealing red carpet dresses. Some other names that are worth mentioning are Rihanna at 2011 Grammys, Liz Hurley at London Premiere of "Four Weddings and A Funeral, and Lil Kim's revealing attires in various events.

Besides "Thor: The Dark World" actress Jaimie Alexander and "Wrecking Ball" singer Miley Cyrus and the others who are mentioned above there are many more who have made sheer and revealing dresses a trend in tinsel town's red carpet welcomes. Which one do you think made for the most chic yet revealing red carpet dresses?
