This is such a cool trend, I definitely want some cut out pieces! This post of yours is giving me tons of inspiration, so perhaps I DIY is in order :)
have a beautiful day cc.
i still love the DVF dress that AO wore to the CFDA awards.
so simple, but the cut-outs add the understated sexiness.

cutouts are instant sex, love it!
cutouts are instant sex, love it!
loves the black halo for ages. only one in my price range ;)
Cutouts are all about the perfect placement. I love how cutouts teeter the line between sexy and trashy, depending on the cutout. For the most part, I think it's sexy.
Beautiful post. I know I probably say this every time I comment..but where to you find the time??!!!! Inspiring as always!
Thank you for your comments, my dear. I adore your Blog, too! :)
So, this time, my choice is Jil Sander. :)

Love this trend, especially on black dresses. So sensual !
I'm kind of really in love with the Rodarte dress! I think that if the cutouts are well-done the results are stunning, but if they're poorly done the overall effect is kind of tacky.
it's a very interesting trend to me, but i had to find out that it doesn't look good on me...;)
I'm obsessed with the Sonia Rykiel swimsuit!! Makes me wish it was still warm enough to wear something like that!!
I've been seeing those slashed skinnies or leggings all over the place!
I love Cutouts! one of my favorite things is my cutout bathingsuite from AA
Selma's dress is my favorite. But I can't imagine any point in my life where I'd want to wear a dress cut out in just the right place to show love handles!
as a layering piece, sure, but my bareskin cutout days are sadly over!
that black halo dress is one of my favorites. I like the cutout trend but I can only do very subtle cutouts.
Amazing cut out dresses and shoes! Cool trend!
Very interesting and indeed cool.
Just don't know how to incorporate it :(

i am think i would like a pair of cut out heels.
After seeing this post, I realized I love cutouts. :D
You read my mind with these, CC! Loving cut outs, it makes for a very luxe detail. Wonderful topic and layout. Thanks for your comments, always making me smile OUT LOUD! <3

Her designs inspire me this season. You will see more of her stuff soon as part of dressing songy.. just between us. oki? :P
