End this Trend

I would like to propose that the very current trend of wearing a sheer skirt/pant end now.  The transparent top layer trend is problematic for a few reasons.  for starters it usually employs a fairly safe silhouette or uninspired style lines, yet comes across as new and different due to it's 'sheer' shock value. Do not let this fool you, this is a design crutch holding up unresolved design decisions.  Working with translucent fabrics offers great opportunity to play with negative space,  line, and depth.  However, simply layering one on top of designer undies does not accomplish this.
