Indeed this year 2012, sheer has become a full-blown fashion trend, sheer tops, sheer pants, sheer maxi, everything sheer, you can see it everywhere, which I think is really an advantage, and easy to copy fashion trend in a very tropic country like ours since it's light and airy. In fact, when I attended the Philippine Fashion Week back in May, saw it was everybody's bet especially for the hot summer season we had, too bad I didn't have the courage to take pics of those pretty ladies.
Talking about sheer bottoms, it can be casual or for evening wear. Depending on the built I guess. Like this one below from Oxygen, very appropriate to wear by the beach.
