You cannot have anything less than a wonderful day (or better, evening) in this dress.
The shell, you see, is fashioned of sheer, fluttery silk that has been enthralling women’s audiences since luxury-loving Rome went into debt to acquire the stuff.
Meanwhile, the sensual, extra-smooth satin lining caresses your body with every move, so your id as well as your ego is purring like a kitten.
Unless you belong to a sect that is into self-denial, I guarantee it will boost your morale.
Silk-and-Satin Wrap Dress (No. 2371), originally found on the frankly hedonistic Left Bank. Below-knee cut of silk georgette, lined in silk satin. Cap sleeves. Wide ruffles down the skirt front and along the sweep.
