Thank you to the best stylist, Diana, for making me feel like I was shopping with another one of my girlfriends and for finding me the most gorgeous dress I could have ever imagined

This midi house dress has such a fun pattern

A dark gown navigating a crowded ballroom instantly communicates prestige and respect for the events formality

I used chalk paint wax for my piece, but you can select whatever option you prefer

Wear it untucked with jeans and sneakers, or with chinos and loafers, and it will shine no matter how you style it

Try a tailored blazer for a city-chic feel, a denim jacket for casual days, or a cropped leather jacket for a little modern edge
