Once relegated to sleepwear and intimates, this delicate, openwork knit material is now making its way into many of my current favorite looks, regardless of the occasion. Thanks to its subtle ribbing and airy perforations, it flatters the body beautifully and keeps me incredibly cool when temperatures rise.
