Dresses for the Season - a list by abigail

Options for This Page

About this list:

I'm engaging in a campaign against the harsh masculinity of pants and shorts this summer, and going to only wear dresses. These are my picks, some of them already purchased and others on the wishlist. I look for dresses that accentuate a woman's curves and create intrigue. Details, such as pleats and darts, are integral to a garment's success, in my opinion. I detest all sheath dresses, since the silhouette reminds me of a pillowcase.

Necessary Objects Eyelet Babydoll Dress

First to recommend

Description

Eyelet is the ideal fabric for dresses. It's classic, breezy, and so comfortable! Thus, I have tons of eyelet dresses in my closet, and I want more. I especially love that this dress is available in bright red, much bolder and more attention-demanding than the white.

Edit: I just ordered this dress, and I am waiting for it to arrive impatiently.

Macy*s: Necessary Objects Eyelet Dress with Contrast Sash

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

I am completely in love with this dress. I'm crazy about the bright contrasting green of the sash against the pristine white eyelet fabric.

Edit: I ordered this dress, but the bust was too tight, so I had to exchange it for a larger size than I normally order. I absolutely love the fabric and green sash! This dress will definitely be one of my favorites for months, and it's a classic style, so I'm sure that it'll reappear next spring too.

The polka dot pattern adds a subtle innocence to this dress, which would otherwise be just another babydoll silhouette.
