Rita Ora has stepped out wearing a completely sheer dress in London, on the same night she debuted a bold new hairdo.

The UK pop star, 34, attended the Fashion Awards at Royal Albert Hall Monday night, local time, where she showed off a new bleach blonde pixie cut.

Walking the red carpet in a grey suit, Ora later hit Vas J Morgan’s birthday party, which doubled as a post-Fashion Awards bash, at the famed Maine Mayfair, where she slipped into her racy ensemble.

The Anywhere singer sported a mesh slip gown with floral details on the bust and a kaleidoscope style pattern on the skirt.

Just last week, Ora performed in Manchester, England at the Hits Radio Live event, where she flaunted her usual long blonde hair.

However, Ora told fans on social media she didn’t chop off her hair and was wearing a wig for the event.

Ora is certainly no stranger to see-through outfits.

The star, who is married to New Zealand director Taika Waititi, hit the Met Gala earlier this year in an ultra-racy, near-nude gown.

Her latest outing comes weeks after Ora paid tribute to late One Direction singer Liam Payne while onstage at the MTV Europe Music Awards.

Ora, who collaborated with Payne on the 2018 song For You, told the audience Payne, who was 31 when he died in Buenos Aires in October, was one of the “kindest people” she’d ever known.

“He was a big part of the MTV world and my world and I think a lot of yours at home and everybody in here tonight,” she said, holding back tears.

“He had the biggest heart, and was always the first person to offer help in any way that he could.

“Let’s just take a moment to remember our friend.”
