Styling Notes & Outfit Ideas

  • When it arrives: Hang it where you can see it while planning which occasion deserves its debut. The anticipation of wearing something this special is half the fun.
  • For dinner dates: Your strappy heels and that delicate gold bracelet you save for evenings when you want to feel polished. The lace provides enough texture that you won't need statement jewellery.
  • When you wear it to cocktail events: Let the sleeves be the star - minimal accessories and your hair pulled to one side to show off the neckline.
  • For wedding guest duties: Nude heels and a small clutch. The midi length is respectful while the sleeves ensure you'll feel appropriately dressed up.
  • The smart move: Have a slip or seamless underwear ready. The lace is lined but you'll want smooth lines underneath for the most flattering silhouette.

Q: Is the lace see-through?
