The high/low hemline — aka mullet — is still on trend for fall. This fall-preview Michael Kors dress at Bergdorf Goodman is a beauty.
I adore this look, especially when it comes in the form of a ballgown by my designing friend Zang Toi.
For less formal mullet inspiration, check out my Huffington Post fashion blogger slideshow. Holy crap! I can’t believe I wrote that nearly a year ago. Time flies!
UPDATED TO ADD: Here’s singer Florence Welch in a Julien MacDonald mullet gown. Stunning!

I love that Michael Kors dress, but your Zang Toi confection is really beautiful, and very you. Those shoes are perfect with it.
WendyB says
Shoes were by Tom Ford and I couldn’t believe I found such a match! I wasn’t even looking, I was just going to wear black shoes, but I saw those and went for it.

I’m kindof surprise mullets have stuck around this long. Maybe they’ll be the defining shape of the 201Xs? Your Zang Toi dress is just fantastic. I bet you spent the whole night pretending the skirt was a cape. (Cause that’s what I’d do).

I have always been a huge fan of this trend – even before it was actually in style. Since I have short legs, it works for me.
