Designer Jane Siskin of Cinq a Sept presented a number of 70’s inspired designs this year. A lot of hippie culture with flower power and psychedelic-inspired prints.
One of her newest creations hot off the runway, was this pink-and-orange Cinq a Sept crocheted dress that is a little crafty, but not too trendy. Cinq a Sept dresses sell for prices ranging between $300-$500 but you can make this dress for about $80.00

Although not yet available in stores, this crocheted dress was presented by Cinq a Sept in their Spring 2020 fashion show. The trend towards crocheted items was strong from many designers on the catwalk this year. Crochet dresses are perfect for spring and summer. Add a shirt or turtleneck and continue the look into fall.
