The shirt dress is a welcomed trend- taking you from business to casual in an instant. With the constant resurgence and sometimes monotonous athleisure trend dominating most stores you visit- the shirt dress has made this ‘transition’ period, of returning to the office and meetings, an easy one. This particular dress, made of Poplin, features an asymmetrical panel that tends to be wholly forgiving to the wearer. It’s mandarin collar takes the formality out of a typical shirt collar. Poplin is a plain weave cotton fabric and can be described as lightweight and less likely to crease than that of 100% cotton.

A crossover between the 70’s and 90’s, the Dumbo fighter dress features color blocking in matching hues in similar shades. In terms of a maxi dress, simplicity is key if you’re planning on wearing it all year long. Perfect for summer or, alternatively, an easy layering piece for winter due to its simplistic silhouette. These dresses are made from Tencel, a fabric that is made from wood pulp. The wood pulp is dissolved when mixed with a solvent to form a wet mixture and then pushed through small holes to create threads which are eventually spun into yarn. Tencel uses less water in it’s manufacturing process, compared to cotton, and is naturally white which eliminates any form of bleaching.

Gingham is as synonymous to summer as florals are to spring. A recurring trend that has become a super versatile one, gingham is synonymous with most decades. The ‘picnic print’ has returned, yet again. Initially considered a daytime print, gingham has taken centre stage in formal and night time dressing.

The Aria dress features a belt which draws the eye ‘through’ the dress rather than to one specific spot. Made from the same fabric, the belt can be tied in a number of different ways depending on the wearer's personal style and expectations. Available in citrus brights, they bring with them a feeling of warmth, happiness and summer. Relatively crease resistant, lightweight and breathable, this A-line silhouette is a closet must-have.

The Mari dress is one of my favorites. Its flamboyant layers are toned down by its inexplicable simplicity, while still making a statement. This dress is wholly inspired and created from food! Inspired by the pink oyster mushroom, the Mari dress is made of orange peels. Orange fibre fabric is made from orange peels discarded in the food industry. Not only is the fabric ‘guilt free’, it also contains Vitamins A, C and E which are absorbed by the skin.

Bold sleeves tend to draw the eye outward and give the garment a sort of balanced look. No matter your concerns, a bold sleeve tends to look good on everyBODY.
