Design Details and Benefits
- Lace over the bralette cups - gives the eye a place to land instead of leaving the top plain
- Lace waistband on the pleated mini - ties the skirt to the top so it reads as one costume
- Short plaid tie on a close collar - is what locks this into schoolgirl costume territory rather than two separates
The collar and the short tie are doing the heavy lifting here. A lace bralette and a mini on their own can look like going-out lingerie; putting a close collar and a plaid tie on you is what makes it a costume. Worth knowing before you order: coverage is low. The top sits above your ribs, the skirt is very short, and we haven't seen the back. If you want more fabric through the torso, this isn't the one.
