Plaid Mini Dresses, Wide Trousers and Tops

Plaid Mini Dresses, Wide Trousers and Tops

Plaid in playful new shapes, from smocked mini dresses to wide trousers and little tops.

Plaid is having a flirty moment, and I am here for it. The trick is to keep the pattern the star and the shape a little unexpected. Hill House Home's Cosima is a smocked mini with a full skirt that I would wear with ballet flats, and the MAUDE CLUB Rhea has a fur trim at the hem that turns a gingham slip into something I would wear to a winter party.

 

If a dress feels like too much, start with a pair of trousers. BODE's red plaid pair is loud in the best way, and Theory's Fluid pant in blue check goes with a plain white tee. Free People's Atlas mini in plum and the Reformation Adina top in pink gingham give you a softer, sweeter side of the pattern. Mix a check with a solid in the same tone and you cannot go wrong.
