PPQ dresses were put out at Ben Sherman’s Beverly Center location on Sunday night and were still sitting pretty when we got there Monday morning to check them out. Sales reps told Racked they hadn’t sold any yet and jested for us to be the first to own one. Each of the five dresses is meant to represent the trend of a specific decade, our faves being '60’s Mod and '80’s Ska. They all run for $299 and even come in XXS for petites. The dresses are perfectly tailored from mostly linen or silk, so they don’t have much stretch. The fit was perfect until we tried taking the dresses off, which posed as a bit of a challenge. But these iconic dresses are def worth the extra effort.
