TREND REPORT

Spring 2007 Trend: The T-Shirt Dress It’s a versatile closet staple that can be dressed up or down, depending on its style or your look, so why not wear a T-shirt as a completely different piece of clothing? The T-shirt dress is popping up all over, often worn over leggings or skinny jeans, or on its own as a dress. Use one as a coverup over a swimsuit - perfect for here in Hawaii. You can find them ready-to-wear in stores or fabricate your own out of an oversized T-shirt (so Flashdance). Local line Fighting Eel has created the dress Gemini for spring (pictured, available at The Butik). Major retailer Banana Republic has a T-shirt dress for early spring, as well. Throw a belt over it and add heels, and you’ve got a nighttime look, or wear it with slippers and go casually stylish.
