Fresh off the runway we are seeing images of see through netting that are proving to be a new trend for Spring 2011. Designers such as Marchesa, Dolce and Gabbana, and Emilio Pucci are diving into this new trend in fashion apparel in various ways. Whether you want to wear this new look in an edgy, outspoken way or in a feminine and flowery light is completely your choice. This new use of going all out with lace can be extremely fashion forward; however, it could also be a major fashion flop. Gossip Girl’s Leighton Meester wore a see through lace Marchesa jumpsuit to the Harry Winston Court of Jewels Recreation Launch in New York City drawing some unnecessary attention to her backside. Meester went all out completely exposing everything from behind and got some major criticism for it on E!’s “Fashion Police.” Not only was she noticed in a negative light but she was also named one of the worst dressed on the episode that aired during the week of November 17th. This is a clear indication that though this is a new trend, be careful how you go about it or you could become fashion roadkill!
