Definitely fun for the stage, but a little risqué otherwise. Unfortunately celebrities wear whatever they want and get away with it, but not sure this trend should translate into real life unless done in a tasteful manner (good points Mackenzie!)

First response: trashy.

BUT! If it is S/S, a flirty floral bustier would definitely work with a skirt or high waited shorts, right? So then if we cover the rest of ourselves up appropriately, there IS a way to pull off this risky look!
Using neutral tones (think fall colors), soft fabrics, and the right cut, I kinda love it.
The key is to finding a bustier that is long enough (half-way between bra line and belly button)and high-waisted skirt (or pants) so there’s only a sliver of skin showing!
A camel or beige bustier paired with a high-waisted (which is a must) oxblood or maroon maxi skirt and tan booties looks super chic! Add leather jacket or chambray shirt on top and Voila! Bustier gets upgraded from trashy to classy!!
