Wear all the patterns and colors in a statement dress!
Gingham has been a classic pattern throughout history and is known as being a more “vintage” look. Our ladies of admiration have been wearing it throughout the years (cue Princess Diana, Dolly Parton, and Julie Andrews). The sophisticated look can be translated into a fun combination, especially for spending a day outside. Grab your best pattern and hit the grass for a Sunday full of lounging and snacking!
