Cut-out dresses
Cut-outs were everywhere, specifically, a double oblique cut-out but this time, designers were picking a side. One-sided oblique cutouts were everywhere and on everyone and rather than the traditional torso-based cut-outs that we’re used to seeing, we will see new cutouts on the underboob and rib cage, or the entire side of your body. The style is a great way to emphasize your waist, show a little skin and play up any simple gown. These body-skimming designs are daring but can be paired back with the help of a longline cardigan or coat.
