Don’t be a turkey! Get on board with the trend… Waists are being lowered to hip height for Spring 2009 – so flaunt your womanly figure with a drop-waist dress or a hip-slung belt!Runway pictures courtesy style.com unless otherwise credited.

I like Erdem dress very much. ^^
I like the low waist in dresses, like at the 20's.
But I don't like it on pants.
Very nice pieces you show us, beauty.

Carrie, these are beautiful. I love the louisa beccaria dress. Would be fab for a Christmas party. Carla x
Happy (American) Thanksgiving CC!
The green dress at Galliano is amazing. And I love the Armand Basi One look too.
Thank you for your comments and contribution to our blog, "Forever In Fashion." We appreciate your kind comments and your support and value you highly on our page. :) Take care and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Those designers are determined to foist the 20s on us seeing as they've raided most other decades - oh well it'll be fun!
Oh I love low waists, much better than I do high! And some of my favorite dresses (like one I wore to prom) and another one I wear almost all summer have dropped waists! :) Fantastic post as always! <3

Cool! I just got one 2 days ago for my cousins wedding :D
Here is a trend that looks back on the twenties.
so many highs and lows in fashion!

Not sure about this trend.. I can't imagine it being flattering on many people
Happy Thanksgiving 2U too CC!

The song- 'Drop' is so appropriate for this post...you so witty!

Seriously, I freakin' love your blog! It's full of color and it's just pops. Wish I could say the same thing for mine. Can't wait to read and see more posts.
i really enjoyed this entry. even though i do adore the nipped in waist look, seeing these drop waisted options is very refreshing. and very hippie-ish if i might add.
I am a dress freak and this post made me oh! so happy!!
It's a cool turnpike for fashion, let's see how it works for real women ha ha.
And thanks for the link ;)
Besitos!!
THis is absolute love!!!
mmmmmmmmmmm! i love all this season stuff!
xoxo
