Scuba

Wearing: Preen dress from My-wardrobe.com, Maje coat, Zara handbag, Michael Kors watch and Jacquie Aiche ring.

I wish I had more chances to wear this dress during NYFW, but the cold snap during that week made it impossible to wear it to its potential. I might pack it for LMFF later this week, re worn with heels and contrasting clutch for a night event. My obsession with the bold canary continues, but it is the kimono print and midi length that makes the dress.

Wearing: Michael Lo Sordo dress, Marcs clutch, Zara heels and Factorie ear muffs.

I took these photos weeks ago in the depths of New York winter, when sometimes the only way to combat the numbing cold is with black on black, on top of black. This might seem like just a little black dress at first, but it is an incredibly versatile invisibility cloak for the dozens of layers I was wearing underneath. The dress's layered asymmetrical cut and mix of wool with pleated leather contrast is perfect for aiding winter night or event outfits, or perhaps below freezing early morning moments in Times Square like I was silly enough to brave here.
