THE STYLIST VIEWPOINT

STYLE 1091

The ideal dress for a top tier bridal party, wedding breakfast or even the-morning-after dress for extending the bridal theme to leave on honeymoon. It also works beautifully for elegant civil affairs - worn open necked with a fancier shoe and bolder accessories for youthful flair or as shown here, when a more refined, discreet look is called for.

This dress is incredibly easy to wear, flattering for all and importantly, comfortable. Layer with a matching colour blazer for the day then remove, loosen the neck tie, push back the sleeves and dance barefoot into the night.
