Sheer daring: Jessica Biel wows in see-through black lace dress as she heads to VMA afterparty to support husband Justin Timberlake

She shunned the red carpet at Sunday night’s VMAs and was nowhere to be seen as her husband Justin Timberlake took to the stage to perform.

But Jessica Biel certainly pulled out all the stops for the afterparty in New York, spotted arriving in a sheer lace dress and black stilettos.

Showing up to support her other half, who won big at the ceremony, the A-lister made a stylish addiction to the star-studded bash at the Dream Hotel.

See-through style: Jessica Biel wore a sheer black lace dress over black underwear as she arrived at the Dream Hotel for the VMAs afterparty on Sunday

While Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga left little to the imagination as they paraded around the stage in underwear during the show, Jessica found a more sophisticated way to go risqué.

The 31-year-old’s black underwear was clearly visible through the dress, which looked like it had been made entirely from vintage black lace.

And despite leaving little to the imagination, the star looked sophisticated thanks to the calf-length hemline and high neck.
