Constructing: Ann Arbor Dress

Sunday, July 29, 2012


Any dress inspired by a college town would have to include that same unique essence of all things cultural and casual. The Ann Arbor is a strolling dress...constructed of silky jersey knit that is whimsical with a silhouette that is functional, perfect for relaxing at the sidewalk cafe. The ink-line bows of the print are edgy enough to keep a girl from feeling too sugary-sweet, but with a name like Ann Arbor, it's probably meant to be a sweet summery dress anyway, no?
