Transparent materials, risky or not?



Not risky, I guess. The main benefit of such a gown is that it is great for anyone.  Thanks to a wide range of transparent  dresses that differ in design, silhouette, decor, and other characteristics, you can choose a classical dress or a dress style for daring, confident girls. Perhaps, it will be a revelation for you.                                                                                                                                                                                      Designers can make your dream come true — create a dress from tulle or chiffon embroidered with various patterns in which you will be able to enjoy the life. You won’t walk in your underwear covered with a thin fabric. You mau be sure, that designers will make up something tricky — there is a lower cover under the transparent upper layer. It is made from a non-transparent fabric of darker shade — mocha, beige, pink.

Lace, chiffon, tulle, so many dress materials transparently revealing the body of women,
 sublimated by the creations of Yves Saint Laurent. This exhibition presents around forty textiles, including iconic pieces: the first topless blouse (1968) or the Nude Dress, a black muslin dress belted with ostrich feathers.

The Yves Saint Laurent Museum Paris presents, from February 9 to August 25, 2024, Yves Saint Laurent: Transparencies, the power of materials, second chapter of a story started last summer at the City of Lace and Fashion in Calais .

The exhibition is structured around 5 sections.

  • introduction, exploring several pieces made of organza, Cigaline®, lace, tulle or even muslin with different effects.
  • the woman's body gradually revealed thanks to the use of lace and tulle,
  • the fluidity of movement generated by soft fabrics, such as muslin, which animate the body, cover it and reveal it,
  • construction lines of a garment which allow the body to be structured, like the tracing patterns presented for the first time,
  • silhouettes of brides reinvented with their tulle veil in unfathomable freedom.
