Fashion Speak: Surplice Styling

What is it?
A bodice style (usually on tops or dresses) with one side crossing over the other to form a V neckline.

Why we love it:
V-necklines visually elongate the frame, giving you a longer, leaner silhouette. Plus, surplice styling just looks more interesting than a plain ‘ol V-neck!

Fashion Speak: Princess Seams

What they are:
Princess seams are long rounded seams sewn into the front and/or back of women’s clothing to add shaping. They are designed to closely follow a woman’s shape.

Why we love them:
Princess seams bring out the best in a woman’s body! On slender women, they give the illusion of curves. On full-figured women, they give the illusion of a smaller waist.
