Overview

The Charli D'Amelio Coachella Dress Controversy, also known as Charli D'Amelio See-Through Dress At Revolve Festival, refers to discourse surrounding influencer Charli D'Amelio's 2024 Revolve Festival outfit, which many mistook as attire for Coachella 2024. The outfit was a see-through white dress that exposed her breasts and underwear. A video of D'Amelio dancing in the dress with two friends was uploaded to TikTok in April 2024 and went viral alongside several photos of her in the dress, inspiring criticism towards D'Amelio for wearing what some saw as an inappropriate dress, while others defended her, expressing how she's an adult who can wear what she wants. Charli D'Amelio responded to the controversy days later with a tongue-in-cheek video announcing that she "has nipples."

Background

On April 13th, 2024, Charli D'Amelio attended Revolve Fest, which ran at the same time as the second day of Coachella 2024. She was seen wearing a see-through white dress with no bra that exposed her breasts and underwear. On April 14th, D'Amelio uploaded several photos of herself wearing the dress to Instagram,[1] garnering over 1.1 million likes in five days (example shown below, left, center).

On the same day, TikToker[2] @gianina posted a video of D'Amelio and two friends dancing to Lay Bankz's song "Tell Ur GF" while wearing the dress, garnering over 15 million views in five days (screenshot shown below, right).


REV

The dress inspired criticism from some towards D'Amelio for what they perceived as dressing too provocatively. For example, one of the top comments on her Instagram post, with over 12,000 likes, reads, "Since when did she start dressing like that," and another with over 7,000 likes reads, "Guys ik she’s 20 but even if she was 40 like she’s naked 💀."

The criticism subsequently inspired defense for D'Amelio, with another top comment with over 11,000 likes reading, "yall people forgot shes almost 20.. stop acting so sensitive nd get over it its just an outfit" (comment examples shown below).

I kinda feel like the only situation in which it's okay to treat a living person (woman or otherwise) like an object is when they specifically want to be. I can't deny there are people who might genuinely like that when the mood strikes them, of course. But "going semi-topless" has enough possible motivations besides that (even "wanting to look sexy" is not the same as "wanting to be viewed as an object", and isn't the only option here anyway) that it's probably not a safe bet. It's not like it's sinful to do an inward double-take when you see an attractive person in a state of exposure or anything. Just might be a bit of a stretch to extend that to, "This person clearly doesn't want to be viewed as a person."
