For fashionistas who are unsure of what to wear this season, the look of sultry yet perfectly sophisticated mesh is a perfect way to revamp your wardrobe. Whether you’re stepping out for a night on the town or looking to bring subtle detail into your nine to five sartorial choices, net is the latest material to sweep the runways. Just in time for the season of perfectly bronzed skin and sun-kissed glows, here are a few ways to incorporate mesh into your wardrobe for both work and play.

Casual Chic

Whether your day involves soaking up the sun or dropping by your favourite vintage boutiques, take your sartorial cues from the Alexander Wang catwalk. Style a sheer white mesh tank with a pair of funky blue striped trousers and contrasting flat studded sandals. To combine style with substance, try effortlessly layering your ensemble with an army green zip-up mesh jacket for a finishing touch.

Work Wear

The sheer nature of spring’s hottest fabric may instantly scream red carpet chic, but this sexy material can be artfully styled for a day of business. If you’re unsure of how to transform mesh into a work-appropriate look, turn to the Tome runways for your sartorial inspiration. Try slipping into a flowing white and gold striped blouse, accented with delicate mesh sleeves and statement ruffles. Combine your elegant long top with loose black trousers, dainty strappy sandals and dangling silver earrings for the ultimate in glamour.

Evening

As the sun sets and the cocktails begin to flow freely, swap your understated net sleeves for a full-on metallic mesh gown (as spotted at Marchesa). The look of an intricate hemline, fitted waist and sparkling embellishment helps to bring an air of luxury to a classic evening gown. Meanwhile, decorative pearl earrings enhance the metallic tones of the dress, and “mesh” perfectly with your Hollywood-worthy sartorial statement (pun intended!)
