Wiggle Week: Wiggles on the Stars

You may not have realized that the wiggle dress isn't exactly one that goes out of style. More commonly referred to as a "sheath," the silhouette has never really gone away. It's a popular silhouette even today. Need proof? Check out these celebrities sporting various designers versions:

America Ferrera in Brian Reyes

Ashley Greene in Antonio Berardi

Heidi Klum in Victoria Beckham

Nicole Kidman in L'Wren Scott

Lo Bosworth in Karen Caldwell

Christina Hendricks in L'Wren Scott

What I really love about nearly all of the wiggles pictured above is that they are not only curve-hugging sheaths, but they are also done in "notice me" colors. Aside from Heidi's black and Ashley's white, the rest are bold gem tones that are meant to stand out. And that's not to say that Heidi and Ashley are wallflowers- quite the contrary when you see the details of each dress. As racy as Ashley's may be, I kind of love it. It's a bold choice, no doubt, but she really pulls it off. 

Are you starting to be convinced of the virtues of the wiggle dress in our modern society? I hope so! Check back tomorrow for more fun Wiggle Week posts!
