Dressing on the Side

Lisa Curran Sundresses

Jeez. You get caught crying in the bathroom at your new job just three times, and they say you can’t handle transition.

Lucky for you, Lisa Curran can.

The much-touted bathing suit designer transitions into sundresses with her typical flair. Inspired by ’70s bohemian style, the new collection comes in natural shades like yellow, white, orange, green, and brown. The free-flowing frocks help keep you cool with crocheted cuts, jersey knits, and crinkly cottons and linen.

Try the long look in a yellow flower print. Update your classics with a hand-crocheted minidress in a bevy of colors. Keep warm during the night’s one gust of wind in a long-sleeve, coral V-neck number with toile trim.

From caftans to tanks, the looks work at both the beach and a bar.

How’s that for a smooth transition?
