While there was a lot of lingerie-inspired sexiness on the runways for spring, there was also a kind of angelic transparency that was sweeter and more innocent. The looks feel less like they fell out of a dainties drawer and more like they floated in on a wisp of cloud or took inspiration from a pair of lacy dragonfly wings.
