I’ve never figured out what Resort Wear means exactly- 
Maybe it’s what you wear when you have a kidney stone?
This is screaming ‘praying mantis launching from a cocoon-
Be your own hood ornament-
I think this is Florence Welch at Canne
A Binoche at Canne-
An Senator Organna at Canne-
If I just float thru the cafeteria at work in this- will it seem excessive for bbq bar day?

Oh Zac- you have me a trench coat!!

Odd…when the cloths are almost wearable, the comments aren’t quite so funny…but I liked the hood ornament.

That second dress looks quite lovely and feminine. The model does not fill it out very well, though. I used to wear things like that back in the day when I was a long hired young woman. I would love to see some pretty come back to clothes.
They must have used a serious push up bra for the model in those low cut prom dresses because she really does not do justice to the bodice in that pretty flowered one.
The others garments seem pretty unremarkable.

Yup- I was thinking that bra deserved a major award!

After I got over the gorgeous fabrics and realising the designs are pretty much wearable, sort of, I noticed S.H.O.E.S.
Looked like something I wish I could find at DSW—basic design & comfy heel height—provided I didn’t trip over the pointy toes.

I would wear them all, though the trench coat is more you. I LOVE Senator Organna’s outfit.

What a badly-fitted bodice in the pale blue moire gown–much of this seems like Galliano redux for those who don’t care if it fits of not.

Resort wear is a line of summery clothes that come out in December for those in northern climes who are vacationing in hotter climes, or resorts (don’t we all?). I worked at Leohmann’s decades ago.
The dark purple/burgundy fabric is so yummy.

Actually, it has baffled me. Sometimes it’s beachy, sometimes it’s got sweaters and coats- a mystery to me!

Nah – the whole resort wear definition thing enlightened me… That Liesl dress in pale blue looks like they actually Tried to make the bodice fit so that taller people could look down and see her belly button. I’d be mad too. I hope they gave her pretty undies…

Liesl is angry because somebody dropped something down into her bodice. It was probably cold.

Right? So now I think Resort means Cannes red carpet.

Gorgeous colors and fabrics, and so much flowy-ness! I would love to be my own hood ornament, but I don’t have the tiny waist for it.

Though that one 1930s housewife dress seems out of place in this collection, does it not?

Maybe they should change it to The Resort, DAH-RLING. That way you know it’s not clothes for an RV park.
