Brands like CUUP have long made my personal-favorite minimal-feeling sets, but other brands like Cou Cou Intimates make dainty sets and bodysuits in pointelle fabrications for a sweeter look.

If you do want to go the 'show your underwear' route this summer, follow the minimal approach and look for matching sets in neutral colors and seamless silhouettes. Ahead, shop sheer dresses, tops, and bottoms for spring 2023 to get you started. Or, if you don’t want to wear something that’s entirely sheer, look for pieces that have see-through layers to add volume and structure. Think outside the neutrals box by choosing options that come in spring’s trend colors, like sunshine yellow or bright green. But, basics don’t have to necessarily come in basic colors. “Where the white tank has been a ubiquitous item for seasons -and although it's still a critical core silhouette-as elevated, ‘luxury’ feeling basics continue, switching this out for a sheer tank from time to time will feel like an instant refresh,” Richards tells me.

If you’re not sure about how to style sheer for the new season, look no further than your basics collection. More recently, though, Pugh wore a floor-length Valentino skirt with a cropped gray sweatshirt to attend the brand’s Fall/Winter 2023 show in Paris, leaning into the slightly more wearable version of the trend. She points to brands like Miu Miu and Valentino, too, for their use of the fabrication, citing how they both layered “lingerie with sheers, decorated in jewels and paillettes,” to lend “seductive siren vibes” to the look, she says.įlorence Pugh, who has worn sheer Valentino pieces on many a red carpet (her sparkly frock from the Cannes premiere of Don’t Worry Darling is a highlight) has been an early adopter of the hyper-feminine take on the sheer trend.

“Sheers will always be a bold, take-notice material but one of the critical updates we see in Spring/Summer ‘23 is the evolution from celebrating straight-on sexiness to that of ultra-femininity,” says trend forecaster and founder of JMR Trend + Creative Jessica Richards about where the sheer trend is headed next.
