cutout dress

Dress with holes

A cutout dress is a garment with sections of fabric strategically removed to reveal skin underneath—typically at the waist, sides, back, or shoulders.

The exposed areas create visual interest and a more revealing silhouette while maintaining the structure of a dress: She wore a black cutout dress with geometric shapes at the ribs.

The style ranges from subtle single cutouts to elaborate patterns.
