I loved the bandage-like dresses from Herve Leger, which seemed a little bit risqué at the time. The new collections however, have been featuring dresses that are becoming increasingly minimal, showing slivers of skin where there weren’t any before.
The looks range from sensual, such as the Crisscross Mini Sweater Dress at Givenchy, to edgy, such as the safety pinned tank dress from Stolen Girlfriends Club, or even sporty such as Opening Ceremony’s version of this trend.
Even available for the more recession-conscious is the Crisscross Dress from H&M for the very wallet-friendly price of $50.
When worn properly, a dress like this will surely make a statement for the upcoming summer weather, definitely a key piece for those who have fun with fashion.
