The no-bra trend is all about ditching bras and freeing the nipples, and it’s been gaining momentum over the past year, even more so this year. At the Paris Fall 2024 show, almost everyone embraced the braless look, showing off their nipples here and there. This shift demonstrates that going without a bra is evolving from a mere trend into a widespread lifestyle choice.
Model Adut Akech is one of the major purveyors of the braless trend. She’s been photographed countless times letting it loose and proving that bras aren’t just her thing. The 24-year-old Sudanese model often shares her braless looks on social media and we’ve also seen the Black beauty baring it all while pounding the runways during fashion week shows.
As fashion evolves, so do ideas about what’s beautiful and inclusive, with more and more women with breasts of all shapes and sizes, realizing that bras aren’t always necessary for feeling good. For Akech especially, going braless isn’t just about comfort or appearance—it’s about feeling confident in her own skin, regardless of what others might think.
Be it on the red carpet, the catwalk, or social media, the model is a top contender with Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, or Naomi Campbell when it comes to freeing the nipples and she’s not slowing down anytime time soon. Ahead are nine instances where she proved that fashion is better without the bra.
