46 Tastefully Topless Photoshoots

Nothing gets consumers buying magazines better than featuring a topless photoshoot somewhere inside the issue. These tasteful topless editorials showcase women boldly baring it all for the camera in a way that has been delicately styled to look elegant, classy and most importantly empowering.

Baring your chest can be an intimidating experience and these models and celebrities make it look effortless. While being bare-chested can be quite the scandal, a photographer can style the shoot to make the finale images look classy. Kiera Knightley's recent cover for Interview magazine and Kim Kardashian's nude photoshoot for GQ as Woman of the Year are both examples of celebrities baring it all -- or nearly all -- without looking gaudy or flashy. Careful posing, great lighting and a killer body all help the process.
