March is a transitional month for getting dressed. If you have asked the question, what to wear in NYC in March already, you are not alone. We are living through a grave crisis.

When you ask what to wear in March in NYC, the answer is geometric, ethnic, bold floral or romantic dark ground prints. Add some of these prints to your wardrobe. Let’s take a tour around the city to find the best prints.
