mod dress

Geometric print frock

A mod dress is a women's garment in the style of 1960s British mod fashion—typically a short, A-line or shift silhouette with bold geometric patterns, bright colors, or color-blocking.

The style emphasized youth and modernity, rejecting the fitted waists and full skirts of the previous decade: She wore a black-and-white mod dress to the retro party.
