High fashion model Melodie Dagault looks incredibly stunning in her latest spread for Lula Spring 2010. The blonde stunner rocks a variety of polka dots in [high-waisted skirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-shirt-dress-collection), tights and a sleek short mini dress.

Shot by photographer Kai Z Feng, this black-and-white studio shoot has the perfect mix of high fashion couture and [whimsical prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025). Being a big fan of polka dots myself, I think this spread totally rocks!

**Implications** - In fact, you don't even have to be a mega-fan of polka dots like I am to appreciate these fun fashions. There is no better way to make a massive statement than with a [bold fabric print](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-lilly-reserve-collection) like the Lula Spring 2010 collection does!
