Some of this year’s biggest trends are all culminating into one easy to adopt garment type that you should be adding to your wardrobe: sheer clothing. This season alone, we’ve seen layers on top of layers, looks that show off intricate bralette tops, and (perhaps the weirdest) long sleeves for summer. With sheer garments, you can incorporate a few (if not all) of these trends in one for an elegant, yet breathable outfit for you to look downright fabulous in as restaurants and stores begin to reopen.
This garment above uses Mood’s Lantana Maxi Shirt pattern paired with the sleeves from the Ginger Dress. I skipped the front darts that the Lantana instructions called for, and also moved the center back a few inches further from the fold to get a bit more tulle gathered into the yoke.
