Are you seeing spots? While leopard may be the fashion world’s favorite dotty pattern, designers are turning to something a little more graphic this season and letting the leopard roam free. Spots aren’t disappearing, however, because stores are stocked with springtime-ready polka-dot dresses fit for any event and any budget.
Big-name designers such as Ralph Lauren and Michael Kors are giving classic LBDs a dotty detail makeover and adding of-the-moment bell sleeves. If you’re under the impression that these are a little too dainty or reserved for the ladies who lunch crowd, leave it to Bloomingdale’s and Nasty Gal to stock options that are a little sexier and sultrier. Done up in satin and bold colors, these dresses add a wink and a nudge to any party look. Paired with your go-to staples, these retro-inspired polka dots are a fresh way to update your wardrobe, no matter the season.
