To Sheer Or Not To Sheer

Our agency represents various fashion and luxury brands. As such, we have a nice (and sometime early) take on what is trending in fashion, et al. Refinery29 has a great article that provides advice on how to wear a sheer top. Having worked with this "ongoing" trend for years now, I have my own advice...

  1. If you don't have the right figure forgo anything sheer at all costs...
  2. A nude cami can be just the ticket for sheer, but be prepared for people to stop and stare, until they've figured out that it's a nude cami and not your bare naked self...
  3. Be careful of jewelry, most everything sheer is prone to pricks. That fab necklace just may spell the death of your new EXPENSIVE sheer top…
  4. Sheer can kill. Just kidding, wanted to make sure I hadn't lost you… 
  5. Sheer should be season appropriate - think spring/summer, when your goose pimples won't show through…
  6. Opt for sheer when you want to "say" elegant, not sexy. In defiance of common wisdom, sheer really isn't about sexy, and when it is, it almost always goes wrong…

So check our Refinery 29. They are definitely more sophisticated than I am when it comes to these types of subjects...
