(Newser) – The latest fashion trend for Hollywood’s leading ladies is leaving less to the imagination. Stars from Megan Fox to Emma Watson have been stepping out in sheer outfits, USA Today reports. “Sheer is beautiful,” says one stylist. “You just don’t want to be obscene. The biggest mistake is not putting something underneath.” Her advice for remaining classy? Utilize a skin-colored tube top.

Less is so often more. LESS skin, MORE style. LESS class, MORE skin

People are seen as they advertise themselves to be. There is a big difference between class and slut. It is measure in style not square inches covered. I only fear for the young girls emulating these images.
