Purchased Size: True to Size (Usual Size) Fashion Week ready I needed a pair of shoes to wear while working New York Fashion Week
Made of brocade, elastic material in beige
White Denim Jacket A white denim jacket is a spring & summer staple
We love the contrast of the long sleeves with the dramatic side slit on this impossibly chic gown
The bodice cinches the waist and we love the pretty pleated hem and button front
