Soft Neutrals

I haven’t embraced the bare shoulder look of the moment, but this dress may change my mind. Many of the off-the-shoulder pieces I’ve initially liked are, on closer look, in a stiff fabric, like a poplin, which tend to not flatter my frame. The softness of Zimmerman’s dress would fall nicely, and compliment with a simply tied waist. The neutral color also lends to a less dramatic horizontal line across the bust and shoulders plus, I love the quiet nod to bohemian chic with the delicate paisley embroidery. I would keep the whole look as monochrome as possible with a nude sandal and bag and add a drop earring for a little vertical interest. (A half slip is probably required as well.)
