From the softly pleated skirts at Chloe to the tiered maxi dresses at Jen Kao and ethereal blouses at Preen, the spring/summer 2011 runways were flooded with sheer looks. The delicately free flowing shapes of spring offer a refreshing shift as they juxtapose the hyper, retro-feminine silhouettes from fall. The sheer trend mixed in with the soothing neutral color palette made for an airy and transcendental look for spring.

Scroll through the images above for some inspiration with some of our favorite sheer pieces to glide down the runways. Janice Chou

    Heart the sheer, but some of it’s just not wearable! Looks lovely in photos though…

    I’m going to take it one step further than Rachel Zoe and say I die and I’m in heaven. Love these looks!
