Art Deco Elements

August 29, 2014

Here's another one of my favorite dresses. It's the print that does it for me. I decided to pair it with these gladiator sandals because the strong lines seem to echo the linear design of the dress. Happy Labor Day Weekend!

    Gorgeous! I also can hardly resist a wonderful scrolly or geo black and white (or similar) pattern. :) :)

    How are you so fab when you just had a baby? I think I looked like an ambulatory barf bag for about five months after I had mine...

  • Thistle replied 9 years ago

    Gorgeous! The Art Deco and structure of the dress play so nicely together.

  • Caro in Oz replied 9 years ago

    Perfect - I love this on you :)

  • Nebraskim replied 9 years ago

    This is outstanding. Stunning. So chic.

  • Angie replied 9 years ago

    Killer. xo

  • Sarah A replied 9 years ago

    I've the boldness of the graphic here. Echoing Ummlila... You are looking super bright eyed and happy :)

    Hello gorgeous. (Hugs to the little one too ;-) )

    What a fab dress! Please remind me, do you have another one which is similar, with the pattern placed more around the edges of the top and skirt, or I've mixed things up with someone else? Either way, you look great in it.

    Ornella - I don't have a similar dress though I have worn a black sheath dress with a wildly patterned tee underneath. Maybe that's what you remember?

  • Joy replied 9 years ago

    You look amazing! That dress is a stunner on you. The pattern means that it doesn't need any jewelry, a big plus in summer heat.

  • Suz replied 9 years ago

    That is a beautiful dress. I hear you on that print. Extremely flattering and also adds a bit of unexpected interest. 

  • Aubergine replied 9 years ago

    Such a gorgeous and perfectly fitting dress! And you must be getting sick of comments about how great you look right after having a baby, but you really do look great.

  • MsMary replied 9 years ago

    Ummlila took the words right out of my mouth - how is it even possible to look so chic and fab when you have a brand new baby?  Good grief!  This is awesome!!

  • Firecracker (Sharan) replied 9 years ago

    Oh, wow! This dress is stunning on you, and I love it with the sandals. I'm marveling along with others at your style, so soon after having your baby. I bet it feels less soon to you, though, huh? ;)

  • shedev replied 9 years ago

    You look radiant in this dress.

  • Sveta replied 9 years ago

    Looking lovely DV! The dress is gorgeous and definitely has Art Deco feeling to it.

    Gorgeous and so not like an exhausted new mom!

  • Ingunn replied 9 years ago

    You look amazing. Wow! This dress was made for you. I love the pattern and contrast. Hugs to your little beauty! Does she still have blue eyes?

  • Day Vies replied 9 years ago

    Ingunn - Her eyes are still stormy but more gray than blue. It seems to depend on the light.

I am fascinated with the process of getting dressed every day -- to me this is more challenging than getting dressed for a big event because what I wear is dictated by my activities, work environment, and the weather. Living in a climate that guarantees four seasons (or at least two extremes) provides both challenges and inspiration.
