Whenever it gets a chance,
Alexandre Vauthier douses its designs in something sparkly. And when it cinches, gathers and wraps the frame in stretchy silk – as is the case with this mini dress – it ties together with a crystal-embellished brooch. The excess fabric drapes down the front, drawing attention to the contrast panels at the hips. Now all that’s left to do is slip into some leg-lengthening stilettos – sans tights, of course.
