With her chic square neckline, vintage-inspired fit-and-flare silhouette and optional fluted sleeve, there’s no sunny occasion we wouldn’t wear this versatile dress to. Weekend barbecue? You’ll find us there in an Amélie made in a ditsy floral cotton. Special occasion? You bet we’ll be bringing out the luxurious crepes for a show-stopping style.
