The Find: Futuristic Dresses

Spring fashion looks forward this year, with dresses sculpted into geometric shapes, carved from metallic fabrics, and skewed into asymmetrical silhouettes. Our shopper hunted for experimental dresses you can wear in the present.


Roberta
$110

After hours of browsing the endless vintage racks at Cheap Jack's, I decided this gleaming halter dress by Roberta was worth a shot—until I tried it on. With its frayed hemline, too tight glittery charcoal fabric, and overly revealing neckline, the dress made me feel like a cheap—albeit high-tech— hooker. Lonely Star Trek fans might imagine women of the future in this dress; fashion-forward gals wouldn't. 303 Fifth Ave., at 31st St.; 212-777-9564.
