Fine Lines

Blame it on the Francis one-shoulder zigzag dress that WendyB hooked me up with, but lately bold lines of all kinds have been catching my eye. The dresses below are such a fun combination of style and geometry, although they obviously can't compete with my Francis dress. ;)

Beach grass dress (Anthropologie), $188.27



'Above the Line' dress (ModCloth), $52.99



Edges & angles dress (Anthropologie), $165.86



'Dance Hall Blitz' dress (ModCloth), $149.99



Zigzag dress (Anthropologie), $255.51

    Ooh, happy to be inspiration. I LOVE that first Modcloth one. The second Modcloth reminds me a bit of a vintage Victor Costa dress I have -- I will try to dig up a photo!

    I tried on that anthro dress, but it would have required alteration and I wanted it for a dinner that was a week away so I didn't get it!

    I love all of your picks!
