Sukin Midi Dress - Brown Floral

A brown floral on a bodycon frame is an unusual pairing, and the Sukin Midi Dress is better for it.

The neckline is a high mock, closed at the throat, with long sleeves running to the wrist. Down one side, gathered ruching pulls the fabric across the body and breaks up the print where it sits. The fit stays bodycon through the midi length, the back closes with an invisible zip, and the dress is lined.

It is a party dress that works across seasons rather than in one, since nothing about it is bare. The ruching wants light to read properly, so it does better in a lit room than in daylight. Keep the shoe plain against the print. Earrings rather than a necklace, given the neckline, and a bag small enough to stay out of the way.
