Women's shirts in various styles on display

Overlay shirts layer sheer or contrasting fabric over a base — lace over silk, mesh over cotton. The layering creates depth, texture, and intrigue.

Who It Flatters

The overlay adds dimension without bulk. Sheer overlays offer coverage with allure; the base layer defines the fit.

How to Style It

An overlay shirt is evening-easy — the layers do the styling work. Keep the silhouette simple underneath.

What to Look For When Buying

Check the layers are securely joined at seams. The overlay should move with the base, not against it.
