English term or phrase: a-line dress
Nike’s designers developed a fresh look for the classic, iconic a-line tennis dress. Drawing from Maria’s love for vintage dress design, they focused on the iconic, v-neck front and back which are emphasized by the use of different fabrications; stretch velvet and frayed silk. This adds richness through texture and brings a modern attitude to a classic with the differing tones of black.
