Whether functional or decorative, a large exposed zipper adds edge to basic staples. Metallic teeth are elevating the little black dress to new levels this season.

Chrissie Miller's SOPHOMORE started as a t-shirt company in 2003, but with the help of Madeleine von Froomer (by way of Proenza Schouler), SOPHOMORE has graduated into a full collection. In a world that is so crazy about embellishments, its good to see a solid line of basics with a contemporary edge. Style and comfort, together at last....

Surprisingly, the graphic t-shirt can be a very versatile part of your wardrobe. Most obvious, you can go the laid-back dressed down route by throwing a t-shirt on with a pair of jeans some chucks. However, lately we've been seeing a lot of fashion-forward ladies going for a more dressed up casual look. Think graphic tee, blazer, skinny jeans and gladiator pumps.
