For Resort 2013, the power is all in the illusion. The last Resort 2013 article featured geographic patterns and prints. This article focuses on cutouts, which were once thought to be less-than-classy. However, this new cutout trend has plenty of class, being adopted by luxury designers like Diane von Fürstenberg. The best part about the new cutout trend is that it can be seen on everything. Cutouts are no longer restricted to only dresses, as they have been in the past.
Tracy Reese
This classic ponte skirt with a twist is awesome. Instead of the typical solid color skirt, Tracy Reese used a laser to cut out geometric patterns that resemble flowers. This black and white skirt is composed of a rayon, nylon, and spandex blend – making it suitable for daywear.

If you wanted to opt for a more classy look, try this dress. The cream is essential for a spring night out on the town. The lightweight texture combined with the color creates a sparkle effect. You can’t possibly go out without sparkling, right? If that wasn’t fabulous enough, the criss-crossed cutouts show just enough skin to turn heads.
