Sharp, sculpted, a little scandalous. A fitted white shirt dress with a long pointed collar and a row of tiny buttons that alternate between black and gold down the front. The shoulders are structured and the bodice is seamed to nip in at the waist. Below, the hem turns into a black tuxedo-style skirt, its pointed lapels folding open and wrapping into a sharp asymmetric line that finishes high on the thigh. Deep, buttoned French cuffs complete the look.

Wear it with pointed ankle-strap pumps and a wide-brimmed hat for old-Hollywood glamour, or belt a blazer over it for a more tailored evening look.
