Outfit Details: Chanel Dress & Bag, Ferragamo Heeled Slides, Arielle Ratner Necklace
Some prints ask for attention, and I’ve never minded giving it. A striped pattern with real contrast, colors that have clearly been thought through, a print my eye goes to first, before I’ve registered the shape or the fabric or anything else. The print is the statement, and everything else in the outfit is there to let it be one.
Christiano Marchelli Dress, Eliou Necklace, Loro Piana Bag, Ancient Greek Sandals
In the depth of summer, these are the pieces I reach for most, on the days and nights when I want to get dressed without overthinking it but I don’t want the result to feel plain. A bright striped dress is already a whole look, ready for dinner or an afternoon of shopping. A matching set in an all-over floral does the same, one decision instead of ten. Even a shoe can carry it, a graphic stripe peeking out from a pant leg. That’s the pull of a print that does the work. It makes getting dressed simple, and the outfit still says something.
