SHORT DRESSES

Navigating between pared-back minimalism and playful eclecticism, this season's varied selection of short dresses caters to a multitude of stylistic contexts ranging from casual to formal. Combining style and ease-of-wear, loose-fit cable-link and rib knit sweater dresses, spun from cozy wool, soft alpaca, and plush cashmere, are given a novel attitude detailed with tactile fringing and colorful jacquard graphics. Featuring trompe-l’oeil and hybrid constructions, hooded and crewneck French terry styles are pieced together with contrasting poplin and pleated chiffon panels, lending bespoke appeal. Easy quintessential cotton tunics and tailored blazer-style iterations featuring bold shoulders and sharp lapels bring perennial refinement to rotating wardrobes. Buoyant logo patterns, rich textures, and modern stripes freshen casual dress codes. Directional designs conceived with imposing structural billowing sleeves, artfully draped overlays, and angular hemlines propel monochrome attires to avant-garde territories while girlish floral-patterned frocks detailed with ruffled tiers, gathered waists, and scalloped edges exude bohemian elegance. Embellished with intricately embroidered, beaded, and sequinned fineries, semi-sheer evening interpretations rendered in lace, tulle, and mesh bring dark romanticism with a hint of sensuality.
