Welcome to The Essentials, our weekly series highlighting a must-have classic, key to building a timeless, pulled-together closet.

On the hunt for a dress that will never, I repeat never, go out of style? Look no further than the wrap dress. While this wardrobe staple has been around for close to a century, Diane von Furstenberg reinvented it in the '70s, creating a dress that embodied simplicity and sexiness while also feeling uncomplicated and functional. When the designer landed the cover of Newsweek in 1976 wearing one of her iconic creations, the wrap dress trend was locked in for good. Today, the wrap dress remains a great option for accentuating your form and hugging you in all the right places—your go-to when you need a no-fuss look in no time at all. Our picks include classics as well as reimagined favorites that will keep you on your toes.

‘Haute Messes in Dresses’: Clifton Park women start tiny boutique on wheels - NEWS10 ABC

Posted: 22 Mar 2021 03:33 AM PDT

CLIFTON PARK, N.Y. (NEWS10) — Haute Messes In Dresses opened its mobile shopping and styling boutique that customers can reserve for private shopping experiences. The new business endeavor comes as the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way many individuals shop, namely from the comfort of their own homes.

Haute Messes In Dresses purchased the boutique in early February, allowing owners Nicole Nicholas and Randi Poillon to add their signature glamour, transforming it into the ultimate mobile shopping and styling experience.

"The two of us were ready to make a move to expand our business and one day, we stumbled upon this tiny house online," said Nicole. "We couldn't believe how perfect it was for us. From the moment we saw the photos, we knew it was meant to be our next step in growing Haute Messes In Dresses."

The mobile shopping and styling boutique features a shopping space, changing room, chandelier, and more. On the racks, customers can find Haute Messes In Dresses' signature graphic tee-shirts and fashionable face masks as well as new additions for the company: personally selected clothing such as sweaters, dresses, jackets, jeans and more.

"Knowing that we were moving forward with the mobile boutique, we wanted to expand to offerings other than our signature graphic apparel, and incorporate our personal styling services," said Randi. "So, we made the decision to hand select each piece of clothing we house. We also love the way this ties all the aspects of our business together in an exciting way. We have filled the space with versatile, staple pieces that will offer great quality and fit, and pair easily with our customers' existing wardrobes."

22 Affordable Wedding Dresses For Your Super-Special Ceremony

It's no secret that your average wedding looks very different than it did 12 months ago. Goodbye, cavernous venues, triple-digit guest-lists, and weekend-long itineraries; hello, live-streamed ceremonies, minimony and microwedding size guest lists, and lace-adorned formal face masks. Whether you're just beginning to wedding-plan or you've had to re-think a ceremony planned pre-COVID, your wedding budget poses a stark contrast to the one you would have whipped up at the beginning of 2020 and so does your idea of the ideal wedding dress. Brides are still hankering to walk down the aisle in fabulous white getups — even if it's just in their own backyards — but are trading in floor-sweeping pricy gowns in favor of stunningly simple and cheap wedding dresses, and beyond (two-pieces, suits, and onesies are options, too). The Washington Post recently reported that bridal retailers are revamping their offerings, serving up affordable and pared-down dresses to suit the intimate mini-monies that have become more common since the onset of the pandemic. If you find yourself among the growing number of brides in search of a dress that's both pretty and pretty affordable to wear at your scaled-down ceremony, look no further. We rounded up the sweetest white dresses on the internet, both from the ranks of traditional bridal retailers and reader-favorite shops alike. Don't worry, you'll still find plenty of tulle, chiffon, and lace in the slides ahead — you just won't have to break the bank to obtain it.At Refinery29, we're here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff.
