This classy, fitted short dress with its suit collar is accentuated by a plunging V-neck with two pearlised buttons. Its T-shirt sleeves end in a fringed tweed trim reflecting the border around the collar and the button placket. The marled material gives a smart silhouette a couture look but there is nothing staid about it.
For a shortcut to French style, head straight to Claudie Pierlot for the ultimate Parisian capsule. Collections are infused with the brand’s characteristic irreverent attitude, from t-shirts to serious tailoring – and the accessories are extra special, too.
