3 ways to wear the spring-fresh shirt dress!
Your spring wardrobe doesn’t need to be bulging at the seams with trend led fads. Instead, insert a wardrobe staple into the mix, easily, with only a touch of SS’12.
The shirt dress is a versatile number: part shirt, part dress (the clue’s in the name really!), it’s a fabulous and essential wardrobe addition that can be transformed from pretty to preppy in no time!
Because we’re such spring/summer geeks, we couldn’t resist a splash of faded power-flower print, and who better to add some grit to an otherwise ditsy dress than street-girl saviour, Alexander Wang.
Pale petrol blue fading into black with a gathered waist detail ensures this is the pretty dress for hard fashion girls. We love the crisp white collar and the versatility of this botanical print shirt dress when it comes to layering.
And here are three ways to style this piece of 100% silk perfection!
Look 1: Teah Blazer, Reiss; Alexander Wang Emina sandal, Shopbop
Look 2: Waistcoat, H&M; Dolce & Gabbana Silk-mesh and satin sandals, net-a-porter
Look 3: Clutch, Zara, Brandi heels, Kurt Geiger
Alexander Wang Botanical Print Silk Shirt Dress, £498, Liberty
