Do balance revealing pieces with covered-up ones, like Kerry Washington’s skirt.
Don’t show a lot of skin at the same time. Sheer + bare = TMI.

Do know black lace is the easiest sheer fabric to wear. Or try gray or navy, as Blake Lively and Mia Wasikowska did.
Don’t sport head-to-toe white lace unless you’re familiar with the lyrics to “Like a Virgin.” Ecru and ivory are better options for nonbridal moments.

Do wear a solid cami underneath, as Florence Welch is doing. It's a look that works, very Catherine Deneuve.
Don’t layer lacy camisoles and bras under transparent tops for day—only at night.

Do pair a see-through skirt with a longer top as a cover-up.
Don't layer sheer over a flesh-toned suit. You don’t want to disappear!
