Dvf Handy Dress - $385.00

Dianve Von Furstenberg’s woven silk dress is the perfect melding of casual and formal in a summer wear staple. Gathered at the waist and sleeves, the excess fabric in these areas make it appear to be quite a modest piece. Yet, with a closer look one finds a mere 20” drop from the waist, and a sizable boat neck that is being held up by the model’s slightly shrugged shoulders. Do these elements boast cause for concern? Or are you wearing this dress until the cold sets in?
