Trend SS 23: all shows and the 10 hottest looks for the coming season
Quella che ci aspetta è una Primavera Estate estremamente, ma estremamente sexy
March 6th, 2023
Bodies move freely and show themselves in all their forms, revealing legs, navel and cleavage with absolute nonchalance. Slits are giddy, cleavages know no embarrassment, legs lift and backs shine. The SS23 shows (re)celebrate curves, transparencies veil with charm, necklines reveal with boldness. But what is really sexy? For the queen of body consciousness, Donatella Versace, "being sexy never goes out of fashion"; for conceptualist Yohi Yamamoto, "it's not fashion that makes you sexy, it's experience and imagination" In a mind-body mix, the "new" hyper-sexy trend, having passed gracefully through the SS23 shows, arrives in stores.
The designers also showed their self-deprecating side, cutting, draping, shortening and spreading fabrics and proportions with absolute freedom. And how? With maxi bows concealing nudity at Acne Studios, strategic buttons catching the eye at Courregèes, Swarovski-studded minis distracting from the micro length at Area, sheer color blocks on midi lengths at Colville, tone-on-tone micro triangles with high-waisted pants at Ferragamo, lace and drawstrings at the waist at Jacquemus, vertical cuts to deceive the eye at LaQuan Smith, crochet tops and low waists at Ludovic De Saint Sernin, nude sequins that make the body glow at N°21, and navels trimmed in jersey at Saint Laurent.

Transparent fabrics, great for tactical overlays and daring plays, are back in style. They are the epitome of boudoir detailing, rising dramatically from velvet-lined rooms to create a sexy, beguiling accent. Between micro lengths, plunging necklines, lace and lingerie in plain sight, you'll find the garments to focus on in an ultra-sensual new season.
A. Roege Hove relies on fuchsia pink to define the pleated bodice closed with strategic bows, Andrea Adamo emphasizes the concept of second skin in the strictly black sheer mini, A.W.A.K.E. cuts the sleeveless bodysuit with a skillful hand, Cristopher Esber drapes the floor-length chiffon and finishes the long dress with spaghetti strings, Coperni storms the blue fishnet with silver and macro sequins, Marine Serre repurposes her beloved moons on the tulle top and gives the body tattoo effects, Off-White transforms the long T-shirt into a mini dress, a starting point for sensual overlays, Paco Rabanne mixes bright green with black lace to define necklines and lengths, Rick Owens gives the embroidered mini dress a super seductive soul.
