The team at 17 Sundays released the items from their Autumn/Winter range featuring the cut outs and I was all swoonie mcswoon. It made me think, are there a lot of plus-size brands doing cut outs, sheer panels or details this year or is it just me? And as our northern neighbours head into spring and summer I’m assuming we’ll see more and more of them.
Great news, right?
So cut outs, how do you wear them and will they work for you? But of course my friend. As you’ll see from the shopping board below you can got as big or small as you wish and even then there are sheer panels for modesty if that’s what you’re interested in. For me it’s going to be about small peeks of skin even during the cooler months as you work it with layers depending on your location.
And you ALL know I am not really a fan of the cold shoulder look top. Not at all. I’ve picked up a few along the way and am now a little more on board. This cut out thing is certainly something that you can find that will work for whatever your style. Small cuts {laser cuts} or cut outs to flash your assets. Think boobs, legs and midriff. Woot woo. So if you’re ready to embrace all the things, then let’s roll.
SHOP THE LOOK
1. Sheer Panel Dress 2. Laser Cut Tank 3. Cut Out Detail Chambray Shirt
4. Square Panel Midi Skirt 5. Ankle Cuff Flats 6. Cold Shoulder Top
7. Laser Cut Full Skirt 8. Laser Cut Out Blouse 9. Cold Shoulder Mini Dress
10. Sheer Panelled Dress 11. Cut Out Ankle Strap Heels
So there you go folks. A few great finds to get your cut out wardrobe under way. Like I said before, you can go for a little or a lot with this style, Pinterest and the interwebs is full of great examples of it being worn for good and evil. Haha. So find your happy medium and go for it. Winter is the perfect time to give it a go with a peek of coloured tights or that extra layer over.
Laser cut and cut outs, like it or loathe it?

Hi… 🙂 Got here because of the picture/link to my outfit with cutout dress.
I wanna say thank you for being so polite but, also, I’m glad you did it so I got to find out this blog, and I LOVE it.
<3
You look AMAZING in that dress. Thanks for being so cool with me sharing it. And welcome to my blog, happy to have you here. x
I have never been a fan of 17 Sundays, I just didn’t like their clothes (the benefit of many labels and many designers is that we can love some items and loathe others, while another person adores what we dismiss and hates our loves – who wants to look the same!!), however recently I have noticed a piece or two that I thought wasn’t bad, but this dress, I do like it.
Moving onto the collage….
*line2 / pic 3: pretty but it needs something else to lighten its oppression(does that make sense? Lol)
*line 2/ pic 1: cute skirt – perfect for summer and winter. Who makes it? Do you know?
*line 2 / pic 3: oh my, love, love love, the shoes and the dress (where did you find this pic as I want both)
*line 3 / pic 3: I have this in black from country road it’s so cute, and I bough it in the top in cream.
The beige KK sandals are nice -but I can’t find if they are leather or not, will email. Might purchase.
Like you I was never a cold shoulder girl, but I love the CR dress, it’s not quite a cold shoulder dress as the bit that goes around the arm isn’t like a sleeve that has had a bit removed, it’s more like an added decoration as it’s quite loose and sits away from the arm. I’m a partial convert!
As for laser cut outs, I have always appreciated the look, just never purchased it as I haven’t found the perfect piece, but I am certain I will, and there is no doubt that when I find my first piece it will become my gateway piece as I will find many more a I just have to have….
Thanks for the inspiration (and sorry for the essay!).
An epic comment indeed! Thanks for sharing Nadine. I actually came across 17 Sundays YEARS ago when two fellow bloggers were wearing their stuff to a conference. At that time my wardrobe was more corporate wear and jeans, I liked the stuff but didn’t see any of it fitting into my wardrobe. Times change I guess. Brands and our tastes. Happy shopping to you! Hope you find THE piece soon. 😉
