"    Photo: Mimi Crawford for 4.collective   Those looking for outfits that will take them from their 9-to-5 gigs to happy hour, now have chic new options, thanks to the launch of 4.collective. While the four designers behind 4.collective wish to remain anonymous (in order to allow the clothes to shine, they explained to us), and the line is technically independent of Tibi, Frank Smilovic (Tibi&amp;#039;s president) is the investor behind it.  The collection of breezy dresses is meant to be functional for the desk-to-dinner set. Simple sheath shapes, punchy colors (like coral), and of-the-moment color-blocking details achieve just that.  &amp;quot;4.collective is really inspired by the on-the-go modern woman, who&amp;#039;s juggling multiple demands on her day,&amp;quot; said one of the four unnamed designers.   &amp;quot;We want to make it really easy for her to go from the board room to a night out on the town. With 4.collective&amp;#039;s Spring 2013 launch, we are making dresses into a cool staple for the modern woman.&amp;quot; To mark this exciting debut, ELLE.com has received an exclusive look at the sketches that went into making the frocks as well as a preview of the 4.collective campaign images. 4.collective is now available at Neiman Marcus CUSP, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Bloomingdale&amp;#039;s for $275\u2013$335.
