Breast in show! How nipple pasties went from underwear to outerwear

The self-adhesive covers are normally used in lieu of a bra, but celebrities from Cara Delevingne to Doja Cat are proudly flaunting them on the red carpet

It has been 21 years since Sex and the City’s Samantha Jones uttered the words “nipples are huge right now” – yet here we are again. This time, though, nipples are so huge as to be worthy of adornment. “Pasties” – self-adhesive nipple covers usually worn under clothes in lieu of a bra – are being worn proudly, in metallics rather than muted tones, as part of an outfit rather than behind-the-scenes staging.

They have, in fashion circles, gone the way of lingerie: underwear as outerwear, the externalisation of something that was once meant to be concealed. Pasties are no longer sharing space with hidden necessities, such as boob tape or bunion insoles; instead, they are the stars of the show.

At fashion’s biggest annual do, the Met Gala, the model and actor Cara Delevingne wore a smooth gold pair on the red carpet, while the model Bella Hadid wore a pretty scalloped-edged beaded pair to an afterparty. The pop star Doja Cat wore a pointed golden pair with her Schiaparelli gown to the Billboard Music awards.

Elsewhere, they have trickled down to the cultural barometer that is reality TV, featuring under a see-through bodystocking worn by Made in Chelsea’s Maeva D’Ascanio. They are peeking through on the high street, too, clearly visible on Asos models sporting sheer tops.

“The fashion for pasties on the red carpet is not entirely unprecedented,” says Sarah Thornton, the author of Uplifting Sagas: The Top Half of Women’s Liberation. “The pasty arose with burlesque as a commercial form of bare-breasted entertainment. There was no widespread need for them before that. Also, the availability of easy, cheap, gentle adhesives was a necessary precursor – hence their name, which derives from the word ‘paste’.“The burlesque cliche is that they are ‘boob jewellery’. They draw attention to nipples as much as they mask them. . ."

Chris Hemsworth Gets Butt Naked As He Shows Off God Bod In Steamy ‘Thor’ Trailer

A single "flick" from Russell Crowe as Zeus leads to an unforgettable moment.

While last month’s teaser featured Thor’s ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman) wielding the mighty hammer Mjolnir, this one gives fans a look at Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher as well as Russell Crowe as Zeus.

A single flick from Zeus leads to one heavily blurred butt.

“You flicked too hard, dammit!” Thor cries as he stands in all his glory:

“Thor: Love And Thunder,” the fourth Thor-centered movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, hits theaters on July 8.
