AA’s Multi-Dress Dress
 |
Where do you go to get you casual, multi-purpose, no-frills clothes? American Apparel of course! All of their basics are good quality and aren’t made in sweatshops. Sure, they may be a tad over-priced but if I can rationalize thousand dollar Louboutins then I can definitely understand the necessity for a $35 t-shirt, right? Today, however, I’m not going to wax poetic about their t-shirts, leggings, bodycon skirts, thigh-high socks, or even their bodysuits, for that matter. Right now, it’s their extra-versatile ‘Le Sac Dress’ that excite me.
Sure, this dress would have been much better for summer considering my days of wearing sleeveless dresses on the east coast are numbered, but it will be just as cute under a cardigan or even the perfect leather motorcycle jacket. The bitter chill of winter is upon us, and there’s no stopping it— but, weather issues aside, I love the thought of having a basic dress that can be multiple dresses with a slight variation in how you tie it.
I have to admit, I’m not really sure about all of their dress-tying suggestions, but for the most part I would wear each look. Plus, I’m pretty sure there are other variations on ‘Le Sac Dress’ you could figure out if you had the time and the creativity. Perhaps, AA should give you a complimentary how-to guide with a ton of different ways to tie the dress.
Not only can you switch up ‘Le Sac Dress’ by changing the way it’s tied and wrapped, but you can also change the straps. They’re selling extra straps at AA for $10, but I’m sure you could just go to you’re local fabric/craft store and buy some cool ribbon to be the straps for a couple bucks. Either way, this multi-dress dress is definitely worth the $38 they’re charging. Now all we have to do is get them to stop charging $35 for some of their tees and everything with be square.
