How To Wear Sheer Tops

A big shoutout to all the designers who made sheer wearable and showed us how it’s done. Sheer tops are yet another reason summers are exciting. They might seem like a rather deliberate statement for some of us, but just like everything else, you need to know your way around them; and they also take a little getting-used-to. While some of us think that flaunting a sheer top is a great idea and a bold style statement, we just don’t know how to pull it off. If this particular problem has been bothering you, just hang in there, we are going to sort this out for you once and for all.

What To Wear Under A Sheer Top?

Before we get into styling tips or ideas, let’s answer the first question most of us have – what do we wear under a sheer top or a lace dress? I’m sure this bothers you as well, and that’s (probably) why you have been avoiding wearing it. It all starts with how much sheer are you willing to go. But, remember, you need to wear decent (read: good) lingerie inside. Choose neutral colors like black or nudes, or the color of the top. If you want to make it look like an outline, wear a camisole or a pretty looking waist length lingerie underneath. Bandeau bras and bralettes are other interesting choices. So, get to know your comfort zone, and dress accordingly.

Best Sheer Top Outfit Ideas

1. Kylie Jenner Mesh Top

Nobody does the sheer and illusion as good as the Kardashian clan does. And, the youngest of them has been giving us high fashion goals for quite some time now. So, here’s a look you can easily replicate. Wear a bandeau, a strapless bra or a camisole with it and pair it with a skinny pair of jeans.

2. Kendall Jenner Sheer Dress

 

We cannot talk about one sister and not mention the other, considering the gigantic style icon she is, practically setting the runways on fire. If you have a dress in mind, go right ahead and take the lead from our very own Kendall.

3. Floral Long Sleeves Sheer Top

For the love of florals, and now sheer, let’s bring them both together. Choose a black bra to make the floral design stand out, and go for a pair of leggings or trousers in black. Choose shiny leather ballerinas or boots for good measure.

4. Long Side Slit T-Shirt Tops

If a crazy idea like ‘wearing sheer in winter’ has crossed your mind, let’s address that too, but while at it, tread cautiously. Pick one of these long T-shirt tops that come with a side slit and pair it with fleece leggings and boots. Throw on an oversized coat while you are outdoors, and shed it when you are not – you’ve got yourself a deal.

5. Off-Shoulder Style Sheer Dress

An off-shoulder style sheer dress that doubles up as a bikini cover-up and a party dress – whichever pleases you. Go with the color of the dress for the inners or go completely contrast. MAJOR WOW!
