Splurge vs. Steal: Hot Geometry

Share | Print

By Elizabeth Farrell

Spend a lot or spend a little, but whatever you do, get off that treadmill and shape up this season with dresses showcasing geometric patterns.

Splurge: Slip into this strapless and flirty polka-dot dress by Vera Wang’s Lavender Label for a sunny daytime outing or a night on the town. Available for $425 at Cusp in Georgetown (3030 M St., NW; 202-625-0898).

Steal: You won’t be square in this yellow silk frock decorated with white squares for $150. Hidden pockets add a surprise and a place to put the money you saved. Find it at Banana Republic (601 13th St., NW, 202-638-2724; 1801 Connecticut Ave., NW, 202-332-3214; 3200 M St., NW, 202-333-2554; and other area locations).

$150 doesn’t count as a steal! I don’t have a single dress in my closet that cost more than $80 and you’d never know it. :)
