If there’s one clothing detail I find myself gravitating toward over and over again, it’s an asymmetrical hem. Even the simplest dress, skirt, or top feels more interesting when it’s asymmetric. Since I tend to love basics, it’s an easy way to make everyday pieces feel a bit more unique.
Personally, I love a one-shoulder top or a skirt or dress with an off-kilter cut—like the Gabriel Dress from Geel, the Kesha Dress from With Jéan, and the Annette Tee Skirt Set from Free People. I also have the Aurora Halter Dress from Campbell & Kramer and the Hailey Off-Shoulder Dress from Démodémodé, both of which I love. I’ve even had J.Crew‘s Cashmere-Wool Blend Poncho on my wish list since last spring.
Just typing the word “asymmetric” into Zara usually does the trick to finding pieces, such as the Asymmetric Polka Dot Midi Skirt, the Asymmetric Short Dress, the Open-Back Halter Dress, and the Asymmetric Midi Dress.
