Fashion advice published today highlights summer layering as a method to enhance outfits. This approach aims to add visual interest and suggest skin without full exposure, even during warm weather.
A core element of summer layering involves using shirts that are not entirely opaque, such as sheer silk or fine linen. These are designed to be worn with a visible underlayer, which could be a lace bra or a sturdy vest top, with a suggestion to choose colours like neon pink or black over nude tones.
Crochet is also suggested as a versatile layering piece. When used as a translucent top layer, such as an open-knit jumper over a swimsuit, it can provide texture and a sharper look, moving away from a traditional beach or festival aesthetic.
The advice suggests that layering encourages different ways of wearing existing clothes, allowing for a blend of maximalist and minimalist styles.
