It needs a decision.\u003c\/strong\u003e The Meridian Line makes one: a hard horizontal break across an ankle-length column, wrapped at the neck, with nothing else competing for attention. Colour blocking is the oldest trick in the book and the one most often overdone. Here it is used once, decisively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.75; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eThe halter neck is cut to sit high on the collarbone and tie at the back of the neck, which lifts the whole silhouette without a strap in sight. The body falls in an asymmetrical line from the break, so the dress moves independently of the hips. Slight stretch in the polyester keeps the column from clinging at the seat and lets the ankle-length hem clear a heel without pooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height:1.75; margin-bottom:16px;\"\u003eIt is a summer dress that behaves like evening wear, which is the useful part. In a restaurant with no air conditioning and a dress code nobody explained, it is the correct answer. Worn with flat sandals at four in the afternoon and a heel at eight, the same garment covers both without a change of clothes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-style:italic; color:#555; border-left:2px solid #b08d57; padding-left:14px; margin:22px 0;\"\u003eOne line across the body.
