Stylish Sheer Dresses to Add to Your Closet

Who says you have to stop wearing white after labor day? This dress has everything, texture, a flattering cut, you name it; but the best part is the maxi dress doesn’t overdo it on slits and a deep neckline— it just lets the slightly sheer fabric do the talking.

There’s no singular way to style something sheer, but I’d opt for an opaque bandeau and trousers underneath for a high contrast yet comfortable look.

This is giving ’70s in the best way possible both with the pattern and the collar. Add a pair of boots and high-waisted undergarments and maybe a floppy brimmed hat? Well then you’d have a look that takes Stevie Nicks signature to the next level.

Talk about high glamour. The beauty of this Alaia piece is that it does the work for you with opaque panels that enhance your shape.

Not into flaunting all of what you got? No worries. Find the best of both worlds with this flocked tulle maxi by Givenchy that shows off the arms and legs.

If you’re ready to dive in, there’s no better pick than this glittering number which both gives a lot of leg and is sheer. Just be sure to style with statement jewels.

If more than sheer details are too much to tango with, this pointelle knit frock by Ralph Lauren offers a modest take on the trend.

This dress isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s meant to be worn when you want to turn heads.

Sheer and floaty, this piece is elegantly designed and offers a bit more modest coverage.

The best part about this mesh coverup dress is that you don’t have to just wear it over swim wear. With the right underpinnings and perhaps a pair of sneakers, you can have a look with easy edge. The fact that it’s covered in crystals is an added bonus.

Midnight sequins make for an eveningwear ace.

The tromp l’oeuil of this dress is both scintillating and elongating. The velvet adds texture, for sexy edge.

Perhaps a bit more subtle, who could resist a knit dress with such a sexy spin.

This dress is both sheer and flattering, and doesn’t make you purchase additional underpinnings, which I’d call a win.

Another take on sheer stripes, but with the thoroughly irresistible Norma Kamali spin. Bonus: this piece is sure to be comfortable too.
