The sheer trend has been a dominating force in the celebrity style landscape this past year. At New York Fashion Week’s fall 2023 season in February, stars ranging from Ashley Graham to Lori Harvey donned sheer looks as they sat at the front rows of runway shows. For the 2023 Vanity Fair Oscars party, Ciara made a viral statement in a sheer crystal-embellished gown from Dundas.

Ahead of spotlight
Renee Rapp, the singer was also revealed as the face of Tumi’s latest campaign for the brand’s Georgica collection. The new “Essentially Beautiful” campaign features the new Georgica leather handbags inspired by East Hampton’s Georgica Beach.
Rapp’s big break as an entertainer came when she took over the role of Regina George in Broadway’s “Mean Girls.” Rapp would expand her audience reach and fanbase beyond the musical theatre world when she was cast on HBO’s “The Sex Lives of College Girls.”
Despite her success as an actress, music is Rapp’s first true love. “I was always worried I’d be fired from acting jobs because I wasn’t confident enough,” Rapp said to WWD. “I always knew music is what I wanted to do. I am glad I got the experience I did as an actor because it taught me so much about myself and how to create storylines with my music. I consider it a blessing I get to take everything I applied as an actor and bring it to my music.”
