Lots of sheer

But instead of just Skin showing underneath it's mostly used over other fabrics

chiffon for eveningwear and party dresses is hardly a trend though is it?

sort of expected no?

c'est vrai!

however - it's not just eveningwear - i was going to start this thread and call it "sheer perfection" because some examples are just that. breathtaking.

I like it when it's done in a way that does not show skin or isn't overdone (like at Roksana Ilincic). It's very beautiful in those examples of day dresses... and I think the Miu Miu cardigan would work, but only if there's something underneath it.

 

[saann]

I really like sheer for daytime when it's in a layer on layer style

I would've loved those Nina Ricci dresses if they would've added another thin layer fabric, as I don't like it when you can see someone's underwear.
