Brooks Nader kicked off New York Fashion Week with a daring take on the naked dress.
The 29-year-old model stepped out in Manhattan Wednesday night wearing a sheer black lace midi dress while attending a Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) event kicking off New York Fashion Week.
Nader was first photographed stepping out of a black SUV in the see-through lace look, which featured short ruffled sleeves, a high neckline and a fitted silhouette that fell below her knees.

The model’s appearance comes as her personal life continues to make headlines after her highly publicized split from former “Dancing with the Stars” partner Gleb Savchenko.
Nader and Savchenko were paired during Season 33 of the ABC competition series in 2024, and their chemistry quickly fueled romance speculation. Their relationship continued off the dance floor before the pair split in April 2025.

Nader accused Savchenko of cheating during the August 2025 premiere of her Freeform reality series, “Love Thy Nader.” Savchenko denied the allegations.
Cameras captured Nader and her sisters going through Savchenko’s phone after he accidentally left it behind in New York. Nader claimed she discovered messages and screenshots that led her to believe he had been unfaithful.

“I don’t even know what to say,” Nader said on the show after looking through his phone. “I feel really betrayed.”
She later reflected on how invested she had become in the relationship.
“I really did believe everything he said about how special I was to him and what I meant to him,” Nader said. “I gave a little piece of me away to this relationship because I was so all in on it, and I really did love him.”
Savchenko has strongly denied Nader’s allegations.
“I’m not a cheater,” he previously told E! News. “I’m actually a family guy. I’m a relationship guy.”
The former couple’s history has returned to the spotlight as another member of the Nader family prepares to enter the “Dancing with the Stars” ballroom.

When Entertainment Tonight recently asked Sarah Jane how she felt about not having to cross paths with her sister’s ex on the show, she kept her response brief.
“I wish him well. Glad I’m not having to deal with that awkward interaction,” Sarah Jane said.
Meanwhile, Nader appears to be having some fun with her dating history.
During a recent rapid-fire interview with StyleCaster at the “Practical Magic 2” premiere, the model was asked whether she would ever “hex” an ex.
“I get my revenge in other ways,” Nader joked.
“I haunt them with billboards all over LA and New York,” she added. “And they’re like, ‘I can’t escape her!'”
