If ‘naked dressing’ is a stretch too far, sheer fabrics can provide a real-life friendly compromise

ashion loves nothing more than an extreme trend, one difficult to imagine transferring to most people’s everyday lives. See naked dressing, where stars on the red carpet wear transparent and sometimes barely there gowns.
This party season, however, there appears to be a real-life friendly compromise. Enter the sheer skirt.
Sheer skirts have appeared on the catwalk at brands including Simone Rocha and Chanel, and have been worn by celebrities. This week, Jacqueline Bisset wore one with a blazer to the Torino film festival, while Victoria Beckham wore one to a hen party in the summer. But they are also now on the high street – including at Cos and Marks & Spencer. At Depop, searches for sheer skirts are up 99% since January.
