With a body like hers, who can blame her for showing off?

By now, the entire world knows that Jennifer Lopez, thinner and more toned than ever at 45, has a newfound appreciation of sheer fabric, which is often found in considerable quantity in most of her red carpet gowns.

Even so, her choice for last night’s Billboard Music Awards, the 2015 edition, was comparatively bolder. It was basically a netting that covered only the essential bits of her body.

Jennifer Lopez stuns on the red carpet again

The dress is by Charbel Zoe, and it stands out for a large sheer panel right in the front, thus showing off Jennifer’s well-defined abs and plenty of cleavage. It’s very busy in the bottom half, with the same patterns as on the sleeves.

JLo accessorized with Christian Louboutin shoes and a silver clutch, and wore her hair down, with plenty of volume. She seemed to be sporting new, lighter highlights, but they could have been extensions.

For many months now, sheer fabrics have proved Jennifer’s go-to material for her red carpet gowns, which was understandable since, at her age, she is credited with having one of the best bodies in the industry. Plus, she worked hard to get in such enviable shape, so it’s natural for her to want to show off the results of her hard work.

However, never before has she shown this much skin at an industry event. You can get a better look at her dress and her styling in the video below.

Alone on the red carpet, but not so inside

As you can see, Jennifer posed alone on the red carpet, but she didn’t remain so for long. AceShowbiz notes that she was reunited with boyfriend Casper Smart, with whom she is believed to have reconciled recently.

According to some reports, they might have never been broken up, as the split could have been staged for PR purposes: it served to be seen as a single lady since she had a new movie, “The Boy Next Door,” coming out.

Either way, they’re back together again: Jennifer told Ellen a couple of days ago that, while she wasn’t single, she wasn’t taken just yet either. She and Casper sat next to each other last night, chatting and acting like a couple throughout the night.

It’s probably safe to assume she’s taken.
