The Hervé Léger comeback story of recent years has had surprising legs, thanks to Lubov and Max Azria s seemingly limitless ability to riff on the classic bandage dress. New for Resort? Prints, for one, in the form of graphic, tribal-inspired jacquard patterns on a magenta and tangerine swingy miniskirt (a flattering option for those of us who aren t size-zero supermodels) and a black and white frock with a plunging neckline. Fringe showed up, too, cascading down the sides of a pale gray halter-style number.
The designers also experimented with thinner-gauge bandages this season, turning out a sexy cream power suit with zip-up jacket and fitted pencil skirt. We wouldn t necessarily advise wearing it to the office—particularly if you work in, say, banking—but the brand s sizable alpha-female fan base will surely find a suitable occasion.
