Drop-Waist Dress {3 Ways}



Diane von Furstenberg Dress.  3.1 Phillip Lim Mini Pashli Satchel.  
J.Crew Bangle.  The Row Sunglasses.  Enzo Angiolini Heels.

I can't get enough of flared silhouettes. Peplum tops and drop-waist dresses are both completely up my alley right now. This Diane von Furstenberg Maeryn Poplin dress is season-less in classic black and versatile (easily taken from the office to an event and I'm already picturing how I would wear it come fall paired with chunky knits). 

Click on over to see how I've styled it 3 ways in this video with Shopbop!

I think drop-waist dresses can be a bit hard to pull off for some girls (I speak from experience here), but perhaps in a slimming shade like black as you've done here (or navy!) it could be more flattering? I think I'll give this a try... You look absolutely fab by the way!

I've been seeing this dress make the rounds, and my love for it continues to grow. I've seen it in the coral colour, but I definitely prefer your black version. You can wear it all year round. Beautiful piece. :)

@Chelsea - thank you! The blazer is from Rag & Bone! x

Alicia Lund said...

@Anonymous - yes it runs true to size. I am 5'1'' and am wearing a size 0. I may actually get the length taken up an inch or so... because it is a bit long on me. Hope that helps! x

I love that the dress has a hint of peplum at the bottom, but not enough to distract. It looks like it could be dressed up or down so easily- I need something like that in my closet!

Xxoo,
