Remember the show stopping Versace dress Jennifer Lopez wore to the Grammy Awards in 2000?
The pop singer put Versace on a different pedestal at the 2000 Grammy Awards wearing the famous silk chiffon dress that's become one of the most iconic looks of all time on the red carpet with her boyfriend at the time; Sean Combs/P Diddy in tow!
For the 42nd Grammy Awards red carpet on February 23rd 2000, Lopez chose the sheer piece with bamboo pattern and tropical leaf prints featuring a navel baring neckline (cut so low her navel was in full glare) and citrine studded waistline.

The piece was loosely held with a sparkly brooch below the navel and let open in front of the legs showing off major flesh with a practical train behind her. Lopez wore nude shorts under the look reportedly kept on her almost bare bosom with double sided fashion tape.
The pop sensation was applauded for how confidently and classy she wore the look despite leaving little to imagination yet she carried herself gracefully throughout the awards event.
The outfit got rave reviews and attracted hoards of global media attention that got designer Versace's name engraved in everyone's heart around the world. The iconic look made Donatella Versace a force to reckon with as it marked a turning point in the designer's career after the death of her brother Gianni Versace.
