Sheer Genius

“I’ve been watching the runways from New York Fashion Week, and sheer fabrics are all over. At Prabal Gurung and Alexander Wang, some of the dresses and tops were barely there. Can I get a jump on this trend before next spring? And… I consider myself edgy, but how do I incorporate sheer in an appropriate way?”

“Hi, Maria! Sheer fabrics are everywhere for next spring, and to rock the trend right now sheer sleeves are great for fall/winter. This Helmut Lang dress has sheer sleeves and a high slit. Lace blouses are a huge trend for this fall and also sheer. Wear a camisole underneath and you are all set. I saw girls at New York Fashion Week wearing bodysuits or little shorts under sheer maxi skirts. This looks great paired with a cropped leather jacket.”
