it's summer. . .it's hot. . .dresses should be easy!
Lu is wearing a lightweight cotton satin dress with easy fitted bodice and lightly gathered skirt.
Brights with neutrals can be very beautiful for summer dinners or drinks with friends. . .maybe a linen coat for those chillier evenings at the shore. . .
El is wearing a silk shantung fitted dress with 3/4 sleeves and a metallic finish linen coat and, of course, pearls!
I love to see my dresses in the environments where they are worn. . .these pictures were recently sent to me from clients-
Jill is wearing a grey cotton A-line dress with an African print bodice and red selvage details at the Jersey shore. the dress also has side pleats which are not visible in the photo. really no accessories needed except a great pair of sunglasses and shoes.
Bethany is wearing a Wax-print ankle-length dress to a summer wedding in the Hamptons - looking fabulous with her dapper husband. . .accessorized with wide-brimmed straw hat and summer sandals.
Joëlle is looking festive, yet casuel in one of my Dutch / african Wax-print dresses - out to dinner in Marseille
Kristen in September in New York - nonchalantly fabulous!
