Teyana Taylor already had our attention when she hit the 2026 Golden Globes red carpet in ultra-sexy, custom black Schiaparelli. Then she turned around, and lo<\/em>: \u201cThe crack is covered in diamonds,\u201d she said on the E!<\/em> red carpet. Indeed, Taylor\u2019s LBD was complete with a rhinestone-encrusted whale tail\u2014topped off with a ladylike bow.<\/p>\n

At the 2025 Met Gala, Vogue<\/em> declared that boobs are back\u2014a truth that would resonate throughout the year, as heaving bosoms (both natural and man-made) appeared on red carpets everywhere. Now, 2026 is shaping up to prioritize a different kind of cleavage.<\/p>\n

After Alexander McQueen\u2019s spring 1995 collection introduced the bumster, the derri\u00e8re-baring look has enjoyed several resurgences\u2014most recently in McQueen\u2019s spring 2026 collection by Se\u00e1n McGirr. Alex Consani sauntered down the runway in a pair of ruffled red lace trousers, her bottom pushed over the top of the leather waistband like breasts in a pushup bra.<\/p>\n

But is the look wearable in real life? Amelia Gray seemed to think so when she took the look off the runway and into the Los Angeles streets. Gray preserved a semblance of modesty by adding a black thong, which she wore high on her hips for the noughties-inspired whale tail look.<\/p>\n

Gray and Taylor aren\u2019t the only celebrities to experiment with the look. At the 2024 Met Gala, Kendall Jenner opted for a never-worn archival Givenchy dress by Alexander McQueen (who else?), where a sliver of mesh slung low across Jenner\u2019s hips offering just the slightest glimpse of her backside.<\/p>\n

Others took it much<\/em> further in 2025. At the Vanity Fair<\/em> Oscars party, Zo\u00eb Kravitz hit the carpet in a custom black Saint Laurent dress complete with a sheer rhinestone-dotted back panel that showed off her rear end. Kravitz\u2019s friend Hailey Bieber followed suit at the 2025 GQ<\/em> Man of the Year Awards, opting for a whale tail emerging from her sheer beaded dress.<\/p>\n

Between the revival of bumsters at McQueen and fashion-forward celebrities taking a stab at the bold reveal, we can only wonder: Will 2026 be the year of the crack?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n
