WHAT: Sleeper Atlanta Linen Dress
WHY: While a breezy nap-to-wedding dress might not seem high on your list of what to spend $320 on, give me two more paragraphs to convince you.
First, this dress is what a meadow might feel like if a meadow was able to shapeshift into a piece of clothing. That should really be enough but let’s continue.
Second, the moment you put it on, you will feel a deep urge to be barefoot, hand-picking fresh figs and tossing them into the makeshift basket you've fashioned from your skirt, to complete your picnic of various triple-creme cheeses, cured meats, and stone fruits. Oh, you also have a tangle of wildflowers in your loose, Pre-Raphaelite auburn curls.
As a bonus, the bust is smocked so that almost anyone can wear it braless with extreme confidence, it allows your décolletage and shoulders to be the star, the shape is supremely flattering on every body type, and it comes with its own matching ribbon, cut from the same linen as the dress.
This is a dress that makes you feel noticeably happier after putting it on. And if clothes don’t make us happier, what business do they have in our lives?
Fine, that was 3 paragraphs.
PRICE: $224 - $320
