What Is an A-Line Dress?
An A-line silhouette is fitted at the bust or waist and flares out gradually toward the hem, forming the shape of a capital letter A.
Start searchingGood to know
A-line is one of the most universally flattering shapes: it skims the hips and thighs without clinging, and defines the waist without cutting into it.
You will find A-line dresses, skirts and coats in every length, from mini to maxi, and in everything from casual cotton to formal satin.
How to wear it
Pair an A-line skirt with a tucked-in top to show the waist, or wear an A-line dress with block heels or flats for an easy, polished look.
