Emma Watson stunned fans at the start of September, enjoying a terrace lunch while in Venice, Italy. Dressing down in the wake of her high-profile Gucci appearances at the Venice Film Festival, the 35-year-old chilled out in a see-through dress and bikini look, channeling the trend she's made late August headlines for as she enjoyed a hike in Ibiza, Spain. Emma, who rarely shows off her swimsuit body, teased her curves in a classy getup while enjoying the last of the Italian summer, and for one fan, her showing some skin was welcomed. "It's about time," the user wrote as a fan account on Instagram reposted photos of Emma's lunch outing.

Scroll for the photos. Looking relaxed, but clearly never out of the paparazzi's reach, Emma modeled a white, see-through shift dress worn over a cute, polka-dot swimsuit.
Enjoying the swanky Hotel Cipriani in Venice, the British actress went makeup-free, highlighting her toned arms and shoulders and holding a coffee cup in one image. Emma, who rocked two Gucci minidresses for a headline-making public appearance just days prior, looked a little more low-key, wearing her hair tied back and a bare face.

"So nice to see Em enjoying herself," one user replied as the above photo was shared on a fan account. Elsewhere, a fan said that it was "about time" that Emma was "flashing the flesh."

Fans spotted every detail. "Did she have a haircut? Her hair is longer here than at the hotel photos and videos," one user remarked.
"Another thing that I noticed: why so many bags for two days? I wonder if she was leaving to the States. or perhaps Venice was the last parade," another said.
