For how to rock a “POP” look, we went shopping for Halston Heritage. The Halston Heritage label takes the best of 1970s disco glam and merges it with a modern sensibility for chic retro looks that are perfectly in the now. The line, an offshoot of legendary American design house Halston, was introduced in 2009. We found these three stunning beauties that not only POP the color, but also the styles. Whether you choose the fun and flirty ruffled one-shoulder, the demure knotted halter, or the sleek and sexy ruched, all of these dress were artfully designed to party hardy. We love the complementary tones of gold jewelry and metalic sandals, which perfectly accessorize these fabulous frocks.
