Elected Official

Collection Crepe Shift ($250)

Hill Staffer

Banana Republic Crepe Shift ($130)

Crepe shift dresses are perfect for mornings when you don’t feel your best.  They conceal flaws and don’t restrict movement.  Add a little tailoring at the waist and bust to give it an even more flattering fit, and you won’t be able to stop wearing it to dinner, drinks and work.

    THANK YOU!! I have been on the hunt for cute shift dresses for a while now; I'm so thrilled you featured this on 10th Commandment.

    Love the tip about a little tailoring to make it even more flattering. I would even suggest just keeping a few good quality, not too wide belts to do the tailoring and leave your dress flexible for more than a few pounds of weight fluctuation.
