Olivia Wilde has embraced the latest fall trend with a daring twist, joining the wave of celebrities who are showcasing lace in a bold new way. This season’s trend is making waves on TikTok, highlighting a sexy yet sophisticated approach to autumn fashion—featuring sheer layers of black lace that leave little to the imagination while maintaining elegance.
For her appearance at the Michael Kors S/S 2025 fashion show during New York Fashion Week, Wilde dazzled in a black lace midi dress. The dress featured a faux sheer top adorned with black lace over a nude bodice, creating an illusion of transparency.
She paired the ensemble with ultra-high-waisted black underwear and a skirt that was entirely sheer lace, elegantly revealing her legs and panties. The skirt’s pleated design fell gracefully around her calves. Wilde completed her look with black slingback shoes, a black clutch, and stylish black Ray-Bans.
Her accessories included a selection of gold jewelry by MÉGA, such as the Open Cuff Bracelet, Double Dalmatian Ring, Eye of the Storm Ring, and Cigar Band Ring. Her hair was styled in gentle, sleek waves, adding a touch of glamour to her sophisticated ensemble.
Olivia Wilde isn’t alone in championing the sheer lace trend this autumn. The sheer dress craze is taking over, with celebrities embracing this bold fashion statement. Last week, Meghann Fahy made a striking impression at the premiere of her new show The Perfect Couple.
She wore a daring black lace dress by Victoria Beckham, which featured a transparent skirt revealing a pair of matching black panties. Lindsay Lohan also jumped on the trend, stepping out in a form-fitting black lace maxi dress this week. Sienna Miller added her own bohemian twist by opting for white lace instead of the more traditional black.
Dakota Johnson offered a subtler take with a delicate lace bodice on a silk Gucci slipdress. Florence Pugh also embraced the sheer black lace look, turning heads at a New York screening of her film We Live in Time.
Katy Perry, not to be left out, flaunted a super sheer black lace maxi skirt in July while promoting her upcoming album, 143. It’s clear: whether embracing a more modest fall look or not, the sheer lace dress is this season’s definitive statement.
