(J. Mendel)Translucent garments made another strong appearance on the spring runways for 2011, ensuring sheer madness for spring, summer and many months to follow...
In the past, sheer fabrics were gathered, blown, pleated and draped, directing fashionistas to wear pieces like a lady, which seldom reveal nothing but pure femininity.
(Giambattista Valli)This year designers pushed the boundaries, revamping and tweaking the trend, appeasing everyone from the 'bad girl wannabes' to the 'ladies that lunch.' Regardless of whichever category one may fit, it's ultra important to exercise good judgment, because the sheer truth is that there is a fine line between classy and trashy.
(Akris)For the office - it's best to keep a conservative approach to this trend. Opt for a blouse that offers a sheer overlay or sheer sleeves. Another option is to layer a sheer blouse over a camisole and or under a blazer, vest or jumper. For the laid back ladies, there is always the hippie chic approach....(see example below).
(Dolce & Gabbanna)Finding the perfect balance of sugar and spice is essential with this trend. If that poses a problem, remember: it’s always best to play it safe. In other words; don't take fashion tips from Lady Gaga.
