Easter Frockery: Lower Figure

A fitted bodice floating over an a-line skirt – appropriately shining and shadowing the lovely lower figure. Cardigan Empire recommendations ensue:

1. Bright, saturated, and full of life The Sweet-As-Pie Dress creates a perfectly modern Easter. Instead of a traditional floral, dots of graphic appliques embellish a perfectly pear silhouette, complete with strategically placed colorblocking at the waist and hem.

Enclosing the shoulders is a layer of cheerful crocheted cephalopods swimming around the edges of the Octopus Warp.

1. Normally I prohibit the use of Black at Easter, but the Wild Bush Rose Shirtdress’s pairing of ebony and ivory feels fresh rather than mournful. I love how the pattern of the skirt rises above the self belt, drawing even more attention to the comparatively tiny waist.

Tomorrow we’ll be frocking Linear Ladies.
