silk and lace dress Shona Joy - La Lune Cumulus Backless Split Maxi - Ivory Asymmetric hem Petite Plume Women's Silk Lace

Style it with barely-there heeled mules and minimal jewellery - the dress has enough going on structurally that you don't need to overwork the accessories

Instead, dress to impress with luxe fabrics that make a chic and elegant statement, like silk and wool

My version is inspired by Violets Mediterranean dense bean salad and features a sun-dried tomato vinaigrette

Its such a cute dress for fall - the high neckline gives it all the autumn appropriateness but cool enough for running out to lunch
