Transparent materials are saturating the red carpets and runway as fashion reclaims the term “naked,” but how can we wear it in real life?
The fashion business constantly evolves, always pushing the boundaries and confronting traditional assumptions. Transparency has emerged as a significant trend, according to Tagwalk. Owing to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, the body-positive movement’s increasing popularity promoted self-acceptance.
This included embracing one’s body, which was demonstrated and even emphasised with translucent nets and veils. Peekaboo elements in textiles, which vary from transparent fabrics to translucent embellishments, continue to captivate designers, influencers, and consumers.
Showcasing a resurgence of see-through fashion, the key main trend observed was the “peek-a-boo look,” characterised by layering long ankle-covering trousers beneath a sheer dress or skirt, creating depth without compromising modesty.
Brands like Vaillant, Zimmermann, and Rotate demonstrated the versatility of semi-sheer items for spring layering, offering a balance between interest and simplicity. Mastering the art of layering delicate pieces allows for a conceal-and-reveal effect, providing a stylish yet not overly exposed aesthetic.
