At the start of spring, our senior fashion writer predicted that sheer tops would be everywhere by the end of it—and, of course, she was right. Last week alone Anne Hathaway and Bella Hadid rocked the see-through trend, pairing sheer tops with skirts. And on Sunday, Jennifer Lopez put her own spin on it, making the barely there shirt look seriously sophisticated.
Lopez paired a semi-sheer, camel-colored top with a matching nude bra and belted maxi skirt with a front slit. Her knee-high brown boots were visible underneath, and she topped the look off with a houndstooth blazer. The look was proof that the skin-baring trend doesn’t have to be overly sexy, which was in part due to the dressed-up styling, but also thanks to that top that was just the right amount of see-through. And you can grab her exact style for just $59.
Intimissimi Boat-Neck Modal Cashmere Top

Lopez, who is an ambassador for Intimissimi, wore the brand’s celebrity- and editor-loved Boat-Neck Modal Cashmere Top in the shade Toffee Brown. It’s also available in 16 other colors including classics—black, white, gray—and bright, summer-ready hues like a tennis-ball green and ballet pink. The shirt is designed with a body-hugging fit, boat-neck cut, and buttery-soft cashmere blend that elevates the wardrobe basic. And as far as sheerness goes, an InStyle commerce writer who swears by the top said that you can play the transparency up or down, recommending you pair it with a black bra to enhance the see-through look or keep it a little more everyday (even work ready) with a nude bra or skin-colored undershirt.

Fans of Intimissimi’s cashmere top love that it’s “comfortable and so versatile,” explaining that the style can easily be dressed up or worn casually, and that it’s so soft you might even want to wear it as pajamas. “It is lightweight, soft on the skin, [and] the fit is so flattering,” said one customer who is so “obsessed” with the long-sleeve shirt that they own three, while another person wrote that they’ve bought “so many” because it’s the perfect undershirt for winter and stand-alone top during spring and summer.

Yes, to my surprise, fans of this top swear that the long-sleeve shirt is a year-round staple, including InStyle’s senior commerce editor Christina Butan. “It’s so thin and breathable that it’s actually become my number one preferred spring and summer layer,” she said, adding that she keeps it in her bag “to throw on over a dress in the office,” layers it with a tank on cooler days, and other times leans into the sheer look with just a bra underneath, à la Lopez. “The styling options are endless,” she told me, saying that it’s well-worth the hype.
