Babes In Skirts: Dresses Make A Comeback With Legs

  • June 13, 2007
After a big downturn, those dresses women everywhere are wearing are creating a retail phenomenon: NPD Group reports that dress sales are up 30.4% in the 12-month period of May 2006 to April 2007, to $5.06 billion.

Last year, sales were down from the previous period by 9.4 %.

A report in Women's Wear Daily predicts dresses will say hot at least through next spring, based on the latest runway collections.
