If we were to narrow
Azzedine Alaïa’s greatest feats down to two skills, it would be stretch knit and the skater silhouette. It just so happens that this dress slots in perfectly to both categories. It nips and skims in all the right places – cinched at the hips and floaty at the hem – and the fabric is arranged in chevron patterns that only add to the slimming effect. Whatever the season, we’d style it with the brand’s laser-cut Mina tote bag.
