See through dresses

[Anonymous]

A trend so few can wear and even fewer can pull off.

Yeah, don't worry, I'm not going to wear one of these outfits.

I'm not sure about female empowerment when they are turning up nearly naked while the men turn up in clothes that have full coverage and provide warmth.

They're in LA, they're not cold. I think the sheer trend is boring/recycled but let's not pretend people are going to move premieres dressed for the elements

I feel the cold. LA at 9pm today will be 63oF, and I'd sure be wearing some cover up in that temperature. I don't know how these women survive wearing next to nothing while the men with them have on trousers, long sleeves and sweaters/jackets.

Come on, you could say that for any women's evening wear. Pretty seldom that people are wearing long sleeves and lined velvet or anything that begins to offers warmth.

Yeah, I think that’s bullshit too. If you look back at women’s evening wear from the 1950s and 1960s, the winter and fall dresses had sleeves and were typically made out of warm fabric. I have a fabulous green velvet cocktail dress from the 1950s with three quarter sleeves. At some point we all agreed that evening wear meant bare shoulders, for reasons that pass understanding. It’s as bad as the stilleto heels that ruin our backs and feet. Why do women do this to ourselves? And if see through clothes are such a great empowering choice, why don’t the men choose to walk around in see through clothes? It’s all just odd.

I don't know. My wedding dress had long sleeves because I wanted them at a time when others were squeezing into strapless gowns creating muffin tops.

And yet the 50s were not a period of empowerment for women, hmm. You found a time when long sleeves were en vogue, but flimsy evening dresses in winter were a thing in the 20s and 30s just like they were after. Wearing impractical clothing is privilege, it means you have a fur at the coat check, or a driver, or you just live in paradise, and now a staff of trainers and surgeons. Good luck convincing anyone not to flaunt it.

I wouldn't do it now, but I participated in this trend back in the 90s and had a great body. I had a few sheer dresses I'd wear over a black bodysuit and I loved that look. I've also seen it over really pretty bra and underwear (not like a thong but something that looks more like a bathing suit). Not for everyone but I liked it -- somewhere between "off duty ballerina" and "Courtney Love". With a pair of Doc Martens and dark lipstick? I looked good, sorry not sorry.

Me too! Black tights with a bodysuit and a tiny sheer dress, revlon moonlit wine matte lipstick!! We were so effing hot!
I’ve torn the Internet apart trying to find a match for that lipstick, nothing comes close.

I've worn them on vacation over a black or nude thong bodysuit or even elegant lingerie. Paired with heels, its makes for a very sexy outfit. Trust me, men and women noticed and the comments were encouraging.

What were the comments behind your back?

[Anonymous]

They are for celebrities, models, and people who look like models. Not for the 98% of the rest us.

Why not just walk around in your lingerie? I’m sure you’d get comments that way too.

You should do an AMA. When I see women dressed like this, I’m always a little curious about their back story. I don’t know anyone that would dress like this.

Plenty of men do. Have you ever been to a gay bar? Pride celebration?

Because you live in DC, the land of black blah. Go to the West Coast.
