This hot season, sheer dresses, tops and bottoms will be cascading through the streets of Berlin, leaving a breezy imprint of their fashion-forward scent. From crafty and colorful transparent ensembles to classic black see-through dresses, we’ve compiled the style guide that will help you stay on top of the trend. Be ready to rock the streets of Berlin in the sheer dress style, no matter what surprise encounter the city throws at you.
Everybody needs a signature black sheer dress they can assemble into a stellar outfit any time of the day, especially if you live in Berlin. Enter Esther Perbandt, one of the most iconic Berlin-based fashion brands, whose motto is “black is colorful”. The staple TANK mesh dress made from 100% cotton boasts a geometrical, easy-to-wear silhouette that can be styled in many different ways.
Pair this versatile piece with Anekdot’s Earth high-waisted black underwear that hugs your hips in a lacey embrace. For a hint of audacious elegance, opt for a matching lacey bralette, or dare to free the nipple.
Esther Perbandt’s transparent dress is a blank canvas for layering your jewelry pieces. Go for bold silver accents such as the small sun cuff and the statement no ring by Jose Anglada.
Ground your look with Aeyde’s bold Arabella Leather Sandals in a creamy snake print and tote your summer essentials in style with Esther Perbandt’s maxi leather bag. This look is perfect for leisurely strolls around Berlin, late-night dates, or summer festivals.
If you’re looking for something a bit more extraordinary to make an impression with, the colorful and artistic pieces offered by Impari are the right fashion stop. We particularly love Impari’s Delight Stone Dress made from recycled PET mesh. This sheer dress in dark green hues and underwater vibes invites you to embrace your inner mermaid.
Complement this ethereal ensemble with an enchanting earrings combination of ADDA’s mesmerizing Morion Earrings and Avgvst Jewelry’s silver Like Plasticine Moon Stud. Bring back the gems game with ADDA’s Morion ring, featuring natural semi-precious stones to accentuate your inner radiance. Shoes-wise, we love these pyramid heel Sandi Black Nappa sandals by Aeyde, as they ground your look and tie together the ‘90s feel.
Looking for a sheer dress that can go on top of any outfit and instantly elevate it? No matter how skimpy or layered you’re thinking, this Drop Shoulder Tulle Dress by Ambra Fiorenza is the perfect transparent dress staple for your wardrobe. Bring out your city girl look with the printed Cotton Bandeau Top and Wrap Skirt also by Ambra Fiorenza in collaboration with painter Stefan Burgelman.
We wanted to recreate a spring/summer look that captures the vibrancy of the season, so we went for colorful accessories. This fresh bamboo green crossbody bag in croc print by Liebeskind Berlin perfectly complements the Shiringa Shoes by eco label Maqu. They not only boast the color of the year, peach fuzz, but are also made from the Shiringa tree that grows only in the Amazon.
Jewelry-wise, we chose this elegant yet edgy Piercing Bracelet and matching Circle Pendant by Vika, infusing an element of playfulness into the transparent outfit. Of course, no look is complete without sunglasses, and we particularly love MYKITA’s Paulson sunglasses for an extra edge.
Imagine you’re jumping on a cloud of pastel softness - this is what the Soothing Dress by W1P Studio feels like. In a light sky blue, this genderless and sustainably made cotton dress will make your summer days in Berlin feel like a soothing dream.
Continue the skyscape feel with MALAIKARAISS’ baby pink Scarf Cloud 9 made from EcoVero for a classy resort look. Pair it with Mykita’s Pearl sunglasses, dashing Freshwater Pearl Necklace by Sister, and Avgvst Jewelry’s charming Daisy Ring to evoke a flower feel.
To bring out the soft blue hue in the Soothing Dress, match it with William Fan’s Carrie handmade pearl bag, an ode to Carrie Bradshaw’s love for mini bags. Wear sexy lingerie if you feel like it - as we often do in our best dreams. We particularly love Anekdot’s Viana Set in vintage style featuring blue florals and nude details, a perfect match for Miyana’s elegant Gia sandals in light brown.
Which sheer path are you going to take this summer and let the veil of color and sultriness take you on a journey in Berlin while wearing your favorite dress?
