BCBGMAXAZRIA tube skirt from Bloomingdales
They’re being spotted on celebs everywhere since last year. The omnipresent ‘bandage’ dress—that figure hugging, curve inducing, form fitting, jaw dropping ‘bringing sexy back’ dress that designer Hervé Léger has made his signature last season in cahoots’ with label Max Azria. The Hervé Léger bandage dress in its variety of colors and styles has earned a host of stylish celebrity fans including Mary J Blige, Joy Bryant, Catherine Zeta Jones, and Kate Bosworth.
And the look is still popular. Case in point the Asymetrical Ombre number from Hervé Léger available at Bloomingdales in a rich coral blend of colors. Yes, short, fitted and oh so sexy!
For the curve-conscious woman there is nothing more stunning than this dress. It is a head turner, a ‘I am so sexy and I know it’ kind of a dress that only the most confident woman would dare don in public. In an ad for Chevy, Mary J wears the one shoulder gray-tone version. Actress Michelle Trachtenberg has said of the dress: "I call this the ‘Get your boyfriend back‘ dress," and she raves, “I’ve got a few of these in my closet!"
Now we have the ‘body con’ bandage skirt—(also known as the tube skirt) making waves. If you think of any design that references ‘tube’ (tube tops from the 80’s?) you know its going to be tight and figure hugging and these skirts don’t disappoint, like the photo top right. Here the ‘bandages’ are more likely to be horizontal, the skirt short and absolutely figure contouring. The perfect sexy skirt to pair with tights and thigh high boots. This WhoWhatWear's Ask a Stylist video coutesy of Bloomingdales gives you the 411 on the tube skirts featuring fashion from the bandage guru BCBGMAXAZRIA.
For the Holidays, if you want to bring out your sexy allure, a metallic bandage dress like this one from Carmen Marc Valvo available at Bloomingdales (now on sale!) might just do the trick. It is simply stunning!
