Item of the Day: Ishii’s Ruffled Strapless Dress

Sometimes an article of clothing brings up an immediate vision of where and how it should be worn (whether or not said imaginary scenario is remotely based in reality is another matter altogether).

This emerald green Ishii dress says semi-formal cocktail party in the early evening of a scorching hot summer day, set in an expansive garden. I’m thinking neutral strappy sandals, loads of yellow or rose gold jewelry, and possibly a magnolia behind the ear.
