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.


Versace
$2980

After ditching an overly vigilant saleswoman at Versace, I selected this black, rayon dress. Once I'd zippered, snapped, and hooked myself into the intricate bodice, I found the shaped cups gave my bust a boost, and the geometric neckline nicely mixed sixties mod and futuristic structure. But the shape of the slightly bubbled and diagonally draped skirt looked more accidental than artistic. Though I definitely felt spacey, I didn’t feel comfortable. 647 Fifth Ave., at 52nd St. 212-317-0224.
