“After seeing photos of models wearing this sheer dress with black undergarments, I knew I wanted to try to replicate the bold look (before realizing there was a detachable red slip dress underneath). I initially styled it with a lacy bra and boyshorts — which was so cute and, surprisingly, made me feel so confident — to wear to NYFW, but couldn’t bring myself to do it in the frigid February weather. Instead, I slipped on the slip underneath (which provided much more warmth), a gold chain belt on top (complete with a heart charm that complemented the heart pattern), plus a black puffer coat, oversized shoulder bag, and knee-high boots to make it a bit more weather-appropriate. And it was a hit! 

Both the mesh fabric and silk slip had a medium weight that felt high-quality and durable. It was also so stretchy, comfortable, and breathable. However, regarding sizing, the size quiz suggested that I order a US 14 (I’m currently a US 10), which felt incorrect to me — I wound up ordering a size 12 that was still roomier than I would have liked, so I recommend sticking to your true size, especially since the mesh is so stretchy.” — Victoria Montalti, Associate Fashion
