Dress
Pink crepe, full length high waisted dress with cumerbund self fabric waist. Full bias cut skirt, short kimono style sleeves. Self fabric bow at neck, back open from neck to waist. Matching pink slip. Purchased at Lord & Taylor.
Pink was traditionally a daytime color, but here it is worn in a very revealing yet elegant way to create a contrast between innocence and scandal.
