An A-line dress is one of the most universally flattering shapes in existence and we’re comfortable saying that with confidence. The fitted bodice and the skirt that flares gradually from the waist works for essentially every body type. It’s not boring though. A good A-line in an interesting fabric or print is genuinely one of the most elegant silhouettes going. We’ve picked everything from casual cotton options to evening worthy versions because the shape deserves to be worn everywhere and in every context.
