Why do we love this dress?

We love this dress for its composition that includes elastane, ensuring a flattering fit that conforms to your curves. Plus, the smocked bodice adds a touch of texture and style.

Why should I buy this dress?

You are going to love having this dress in your collection, as the standout print makes it a true statement piece. The godet hem adds volume and movement to the skirt, while the puffed shoulders offer a vintage-inspired flair to the overall look.

Where would I wear this dress?

The versatile design allows you to transition effortlessly from casual to more elevated settings, ranging from brunches or shopping trips to semi-formal gatherings and dinners.

What shoes should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with VALENTINO GARAVANI Vlogo 95 Leather Over-the-knee Boots. This pair is a perfect match for the dress, especially with the mini hemline complementing the tall height of these boots. The addition of gold-toned logo hardware provides a signature touch, complete with round toes.

What bag should I wear with this dress?

We styled the look with GIVENCHY Mini Antigona Stretch Leather Satchel Bag. It features a shoulder strap with Grommets strung and corset-inspired lacing for a distinctive look, while the black colour offers versatility. The small satchel size complements the dress’s compact nature, creating a well-proportioned and balanced look.

What we don't love about this dress?

The dress would have looked much more appealing if it had a flirty square neckline.
