A whole outfit’s worth of color in one easy shape. Pink, purple, mint and orange
zigzags cross this straight-cut dress, with small contrasting motifs tucked into
the pattern. A round neckline and back zip keep the finish simple.

The broad bands of color have their own rhythm, changing width and direction across
the body and sleeves. Smaller dots and geometric details reward a closer look. The
straight cut gives that busy surface room, without a fitted waist breaking the pattern
into separate sections. It is the sort of dress you can put on, add shoes and feel
properly dressed.

### Let a color lead

Choose one shade from the dress for your accessories rather than trying to repeat
all of them. Purple [flats](https://shopquirkla.com/product-category/shoes/flats/)
would make a lovely partner for the mint; an orange bag would warm up the pink. 
For a quieter combination, try cream loafers and small gold-toned earrings.

Loafers with a bright sock give the shape a playful, slightly school-uniform twist.
Tall boots take it into cooler weather, especially with a plain coat left open. 
The sleeves fall below the elbow on the model shown, leaving room for a favorite
cuff or bracelet. Jewelry in the photographs is used for styling and is not included.

### Fit and condition

Pre-owned. Measurements are available as needed to confirm the dress’s fit through
the bust and hips, along with shoulder-to-hem length. Email us before ordering if
you would like help with sizing or questions about the fabric and condition.
