Height and Seek

10 Feet Winter Collection

Frigid, blustery weather leaves you quaking in your boots. Not to mention that frumpy turtleneck and wool pant ensemble.

But look on the bright side: At least you don’t have to worry about shrinkage.

Take your winter wardrobe to new heights with 10 Feet, an eclectic collection of dresses and knits. The Amsterdam-based line uses bright colors, unexpected beading, and original graphic art to liven up its pieces.

A standard black slip dress has a racy leather bodice and a touch of hipster with an embroidered owl. A crocheted gray and black coat perks up with flirty splashes of bright pink.

Be prepared to do a double take at the shockingly purple wool sweater vest.

But don’t be surprised if it grows on you.

Available at Redeem, 1734 14th Street NW, at S Street (202-332-7447 or redeemus.com).
