Lightness and layering fueled the looks, a combination that some would believe contradict each other. Through the use of sheer fabrics, however, an airiness prevails. It wasn't even hampered by the subdued palette of blacks, neutrals and soft blues. Injected with a sporty ease, the Vera Wang Resort 2014 collection complemented [clingy knits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kerisma-knits) withs lace vests and sheer tunics.
