Flattering spring looks

“Farmers, construction workers and artists wear them for their durability and comfort,” says stylist Dawn Del Russo, who’s worked with Vivica A. Fox and Rachel Bilson. But what makes this spring’s denim overalls modern, feminine and fashionable too? “Unlike the oversize, shape-erasing design of the past, the body-hugging fit showcases curves and the subtle flare at the bottom visually stretches legs for a tall, trim look.”
