10 Drop Waist Dresses That Will Not Break the Bank

categories: Get the look

One of the current trends that I’ve started to see popping up in stores around town is the drop waist dress. It is definitely a different shape than I normally wear (and I realize isn’t well suited for all body types), but I think I’m going to be jumping on this particular trend! I love how the drop waist detail can create a girly, ruffled shape at the bottom of a dress…it’s so feminine and fun!

I’ve rounded up a collection of 10 drop waist dresses that you can add to your own wardrobe without breaking the bank.

1 – Drop Waist No Time dress, ModCloth

2- Squirrel Print Collar dress, Topshop

3 – Cooperative Crepe Slit-Back Shift Dress, Urban Outfitters

4 – Coincidence & Chance Drop Waist Dress, Urban Outfitters

5 – Collared Dropped Waist Dress, Forever21

6 – Colorblocked Shift Dress, Forever21

7 – C Drop-Waist Tailored Crepe Dress, Urban Outfitters

8 – Rauma drop waist dress, Anthropologie

9 – Chandi And Lia Drop Waist Printed Dress, Piperlime

10 – Influence Cat Print Collar Detail Tea Dress, ASOS

Are you a fan of the drop waist trend this season?

    These are adorable! Not for women with curves though! It’s going to be a while till I get into one of these.

      Yeah, I do hear you on that! Drop waist dresses are not for all figures…they’re not universally flattering!

      I love the contrasting collar and the funky print on that one too!

      I love drop waist dresses! I feel like they work well for me because I am short and have short legs. I love #7 and #9! those are adorable!

      I’m with you – they are a very specific style! I had to try on a few before I settled on one that I loved!

    I really love no. 1, no. 5 and no. 8. – I like the subtle style and they just look adorable. Although I’m not sure if it looks really good on me or not. But I’ve tried a drop waisted dress before and it just look – um, blah. lol. Best thing about these, they’re really affordable.

    [...] Until recently, I used to only venture into Ann Taylor LOFT for some shopping. You’ve got to love their selection, as well as their awesome sales! They recently held a Friends and Family sale where the entire store was 40% off – how can you beat that?!?! I happened to pick up this lovely little number on that shopping trip: a drop waist dress (and you know how I’ve been thinking about them lately)! [...]
