April 14, 2023: Banjanan Constance Gown
This was, admittedly, one in every of my picks for Weekend Open Thread… it is humorous how only a few years have handed and it seems a bit dated to my eyes. What do you suppose, readers? Possibly I am simply not imagining it appropriately…

You possibly can nonetheless discover Past Yoga at Nordstrom.
April 14, 2016: J.Crew Peplum, Colorblocked High
Hoo – this J.Crew high encapsulates so many tendencies from the mid-2010s. Colorblocking? Test. Peplum? Test. Unclear whether or not for work or play? Test.
Curiously, I feel peplum is likely to be swinging again — I practically featured it within the part on “new choices to put on on high of labor tops” publish that we did final week. The Fold has various choices, to make sure.
April 14, 2015: J.Crew Regent Blazer

I nonetheless l just like the look of the blazer — how are you sporting the Regent blazer at the moment?
April 14, 2011: Escada Giraffe Print Gown
So far as sheath attire go, I like this one — the cap sleeves, the hem size, the broad boatneck are particulars that I’ve all the time thought had been flattering for sheath attire. I do not suppose we have seen tremendous massive giraffe prints like this shortly, however then once more, this was a Splurge Monday choose, so the thought was that it was one thing totally different and funky.
The Escada gown was $995 at Bloomingdale’s again then.
Sheath Attire for 2025
April 14, 2010: Geometric Wrap Gown
Huh. This gown completely would have been my jam again in 2010, however now… huh. It is sort of humorous (to me, at the least) that I like to recommend sporting it with pink heels, as a result of for some motive at the moment I can not think about something extra hideous, particularly if I add a thick platform like all of the heels had again then.
I can not fairly put my finger on what I do not like concerning the gown, past the truth that it seems like a maternity gown with the waistband.
April 14, 2009: The DVF Julian Wrap
In 2009, we featured this beautiful wrap gown, which is about as basic as they arrive: the Diane von Furstenberg Julian gown, which is nonetheless bought at the moment (and briefly even got here in plus sizes). We famous it was $325 full worth however on sale for $243; these days the complete worth is nearer to $600.
The wrap gown is not out — I feel in the event you noticed a lady sporting this at the moment you’d nonetheless suppose she appeared polished and funky — however you actually see quite a bit much less of them at the moment, or those you do see have a little bit of an extended or shorter hemline. In actual fact, the entire Julian attire on the DvF web site at the moment are minis.
(You possibly can, of COURSE, discover a bunch of them on Poshmark, Vestiaire Collective, and different resale websites as nicely.)
