These aren’t your typical little black dresses. In fact, they are anything but black. They lie in the realm of pretty.
By that, we mean they are embellished, tweaked, adorned with things: appliques, embroidery, lace, tooled leather. Or they are constructed of vibrant, textured fabrics. All are cut in ways that reveal shoulders, collarbones, bare arms–discreetly sexy in every case.
And all of the dresses shown here hit around the knee. Flattering for most women.
For work, forget about it.
For special evenings out, gallery openings, weddings, cocktail parties, lawn parties–yes.
Now, a word about shoulders, collarbones, bare arms and whether these dresses are for you. Being a little bit buff is fine, but remember: Women’s curves are quite natural. And everything’s right about that.
