10-ways-aline-dresses-collage

There are few greater freedoms than feeling the hem of an a-line dress swishing against the kneecaps in the blazing heat. The cascading bodice of an a-line dress makes it a spring and summer staple because it allows space for the slight breezes to grace the legs and thighs. Flirty is a term often used to describe the a-line dress, since it nips at the waist and shows just enough leg to tempt potential suitors.

Besides that, the a-line dress is a complete outfit. It doesn’t require additional garments, unless you want to layer it under a cardigan or blazer. You can pluck an a-line dress from the closet, put on dope shoes and accessories and hit the door without much fuss.
