It’s fabulous because…
No one does glamour better than the Italians, (hello, Milan Fashion Week!), and this week’s designer hails from the midst of it all.
Synonymous with sexy designs that scream personality, Fausto Puglisi’s creations have found red carpet fashion fans in everyone from Coco Rocha to Lily Collins and Rashida Jones.
Given the affection for pastels on the spring/summer ’14 runways was pretty unmissable, we’re diggin’ this two-tone, silhouette-skimming jersey dress for more reasons than one! Cut from the softest jersey, the soft lilac and mint palette and knee-grazing length make this an ideal dress for various occasions.
Why were totally saying yay:
Perfect for work or play: Wear it to work paired with a well-cut jacket and pumps, and swap for a leather biker and heels for after-work fun. Easy.
Great price: Sitting pretty at £282, the price isn’t the heftiest of fees to pay for slither of Italian glam, right?
Easy piece for various occasions: Be it date night, a summer wedding guest option or, even a holiday look; this dress promises to be a fit for all.
And, erm, maybe nay
Unforgiving silhouette: The downside to slipping into a dangerously-clingy dress is its unforgiving nature! Washboard abs and a miniscule waist aren’t everyone’s forte (and shouldn’t be, either), so consider this before investing.
Difficult colour to style: A two-tone option can always throw us a little, so the best styling option sees like all black. Boring. Unless you are Anna Dello Russo, of course.
One-hit wonder: Given its trend-centric colour palette, you could find yourself pushing this dress to the back of the wardrobe once the summer months pass.
