Why do we love this dress?

If you are a fan of the beautiful 40’s-inspired vintage dress trend like me, then you need to add this RIXO dress to your wish list! I really like the classy combination of black with grey lace detailing. Plus, do take a moment to appreciate the delicate rosebud on the front.

Why should I buy this dress?

I want this dress because I am really bored of basic black dresses. This Clarice velvet midi dress will be a breath of fresh air in my evening wear edit. Also, its timeless black colour will allow me to style it with all sorts of jewelry and bags.

Where would I wear this dress?

This black dress is the perfect option to wear for various evening events. I would easily wear it to a fancy gala, dinner dates, holiday parties, an upscale get-together, cocktail party or even a friend’s wedding.

What shoes should I wear with this dress?

I styled the look with the Saint Laurent Barbara 90 Mules. These mules have sharp pointed toes, cute knot details at the vamp for support and slim heels, which will effortlessly complement the vibe of this velvet dress.

What bag should I wear with this dress?

I styled the look with the Alexander Wang Heiress Crystal Mesh Flex Shoulder Bag. This black bag has all-over crystal-embellished mesh and a sleek shoulder strap that will add a little touch of modern elegance to this look.

What we don't love about this dress?

It’s hard to pick something I don’t like about this dress, but I would say because of it’s 40’s inspired design, this dress might not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially those who don’t like vintage style dresses.
