*Sheer* Stockings is one of those stores that do one thing and do it better than anyone. They make sheer fabric stockings in several designs. Gorgeous stockings like the Waves stockings I am wearing with this dress. The dress is also from Sheer, but I would argue that it continues their expertise in working with sheer fabrics. The bodice is made on three layers. If you wear one layer, it’s very revealing. If you wear three, it’s demure. And if you wear two, as I am, it’s flirtatiously seductive. At first glance, it seems demure, but if your partner is really looking at you, he will get an eyeful – front and back. There are more photos on my flickr. 

I wore it to the opening of my good friend, Pielady Small’s show at The Bluffs last night. It was a sim-filling party. She had to send my TP timed when someone left. It took a while to get there, but her work is stunning and worth the many, many attempts to TP in. The Pato Milo Trio broadcast live from their RL show @ Restaurante Bocci in Vallejo, California and the crowd noises in the background really added to the convivial atmosphere of the party. 

More info and style notes after the jump.

I paired the dress with jewelry from Mad About… using their Interlaced bangles and their Cascade earrings and necklace. The always elegant VixenII pumps from Tesla completed the outfit. If I look a bit sad, it’s because my dear friend Maht and I dissolved our marriage last night. We remain the closest of friends, but realized we were better suited to be buddies, not husband and wife. However, perhaps there were some subconscious feelings revealed when I had him pose for me for this shot for me last night. In our tradition, I will call it the Death of Maraht.
