Hi Mary! |
Fashion
Trend: Lingerie as Clothes
Celebrities have been doing it for years. Carrie Bradshaw made it look flawless and
Courtney Love practically made a career out of it. Other celebrities like Fergie, Lady Gaga and
Rihanna have been seen sporting the look over and over again, even as evening
wear. Have you been able to guess the
trend? Lingerie as clothes or underwear
on the outside. If you’ve already
dismissed the idea, you should give it another thought. Many designers have already incorporated the
trend into their fall and spring collections, so it’s not going away any time
soon. The curvier you are, the better
the trend looks, so if you wear plus size bras, then this look just might be
for you.

Lady Gaga, famous for her suggestive outfits |
Slip
Dresses
As mentioned earlier, Courtney Love made
this look very popular in the 90’s during the height of the grunge era. Love’s look is a bit too sexy for most since
she typically wore lighter coloured nighties.
You won’t be able to walk into a department store this fall without
seeing racks upon racks of more modern versions of this dress. In some cases though you might not even have
to look any further than your lingerie drawer.
To pull off this look tastefully, opt for a darker coloured slip dress,
such as black or burgundy. It’s also important to watch the length of the dress
since in many cases lingerie tends to be shorter. Don’t be afraid to pair it with thick
leggings, boots, and a chunky sweater coat.
The mixing of textures is a great way to add a bit of femininity to an
otherwise bulky look.
Sheer
Lace
If you’ve tuned into any recent red carpet
event, then you’re likely to have seen this look. Designers like Gucci, Michael Kohrs, and
Dolce and Gabana have crafted beautiful sheer lace dresses and tops that
celebrities can’t get enough of. These
fashions are to be worn with bras and panties that can be seen through the
clothing. In most cases these looks are
for the very daring, but you can incorporate the look into your repertoire by
opting for more modest versions that come with built in camisoles or slip
dresses. You will still get the
beautiful effect of the sheer lace on your arms, neck, and back.
Peek-a-boo Blazers
A great way to turn a boring business
blazer into a sexy evening look is to go for the peek-a-boo look. This look is achieved by pairing any
beautiful, preferably lacey, bra with a blazer.
Simply button the bottom of the blazer up, leaving just the top of your
bra exposed. Clearly the look of one of
your most ornate plus size bras showing is not suitable for work. This look should be saved for an evening out
on the town with girlfriends or man in your life.
This hot fall and winter trend has
something in it for everyone. It’s a
great way to showcase all of that beautiful lingerie you’ve collected over the
years. Just remember to pick a version
of the trend that you’re comfortable with so that your confidence soars.
Thanks Mary!!!!
