This mini dress has roots in the mid 60s when boxy shapes came in and shorter hemlines took off.
This dress, in two lengths of mini and above the knee, has two necklines: round or split. It features seaming at the high chest, hip and centerline to accentuate the figure. (Back seaming is similar.) With no darts, this is easy to make and easy to wear. Armholes and neckline are faced, zipper at center back.
Color block your mini in trendy brights, or keep it simple in solids as the perfect background to your favorite accessories.
