Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Brooks Nader is no stranger to making headlines with her bold fashion choices, and her latest outing was no exception. On Saturday night, she was spotted leaving the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, hand-in-hand with singer Ellie Goulding, wearing a barely there purple dress that left little to the imagination.
The sheer gown featured a plunging neckline, a thigh-high slit, and an extra-low cut-out in the back, giving onlookers an eyeful as the 27-year-old “Dancing with the Stars” contestant strutted out of the famous venue.
Nader accessorized the revealing ensemble with sky-high silver stilettos, matching jewelry, and what appeared to be a nude thong as she went braless for the girls’ night out. Despite the daring look, Nader seemed in good spirits as she posed for photos alongside the “Lights” hitmaker, 37, who opted for a more conservative little black dress for the evening.
This isn’t the first time Nader has turned heads with her attire. Earlier this year, she wowed onlookers at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue release party by wearing a beaded gown that put her nude pasties and matching thong on full display.
And just a few months ago, she made headlines again for a cut-out black dress she wore to the same event.
Nader’s eye-catching outfits come three years after she opened up about her past struggles with body dysmorphia.
“When I was younger, I had like body dysmorphia, like a lot of my friends were just toothpick skinny,” she shared with Sports Illustrated at the time. “I was the first to, like, grow into myself as a woman, and at that age, that wasn’t like a cool thing, you know, when you’re like 12, and you have boobs.”
But the model has since embraced her curves, confidently rocking these revealing looks on the red carpet and during her night out with Goulding.
Of course, Nader’s latest fashion statement isn’t the only thing getting attention these days. Her budding romance with her “Dancing with the Stars” partner, Gleb Savchenko, has also been the subject of much speculation.
Despite initially shutting down rumors that they were dating, the dance duo has been spotted getting increasingly cozy in recent weeks, packing on the PDA both on and off the dance floor.
Just last week, Nader and Savchenko, 41, were photographed sharing a steamy tongue kiss during a break on the set of the dance competition show. The pair were dressed in rock-themed outfits for Hair Metal Night.
Adding fuel to the romance rumors, Nader and Savchenko have also revealed that they got “secret” matching tattoos, though they’ve remained tight-lipped about the details.
In a cheeky TikTok video, Nader even showed herself getting inked on the hip, with Savchenko holding the tattoo gun as she lip-synced, “I did it.”
The model has also shared throwback photos on her Instagram Story of Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie getting a tattoo of her then-husband Billy Bob Thorton’s name, perhaps hinting at her permanent commitment to her dance partner.
While Nader and Savchenko have maintained that they’re only partners on the dance floor, the undeniable chemistry between the two has “Dancing with the Stars” fans convinced that there’s more behind the scenes.
“I think it’s a huge plus for us,” Savchenko previously told reporters, referring to their dynamic chemistry. “That’s like an advantage that we both look hot.” And Nader seemed to agree, saying, “We’re dancing. We’re at work.” But with the pair spotted getting increasingly cozy, both on and off the dance floor, their on-screen partnership may have blossomed into something more.
Only time will tell if Nader and Savchenko will take their relationship to the next level. In the meantime, the model undoubtedly keeps fans on their toes with her bold fashion choices and rumored romance.
