There’s nothing wrong with a trend, or two, but Paris-based label
ELLERY prefers to create its own rendition of the classics (à la the
Bubbles dress). Borrowing a high-neck silhouette from the Victoriana era, the brand cuts this balloon-sleeved midi with a longline shape and pleats through the skirt. Tumbling down with a simple cutout at the bodice, it’s swathed in a glossy wet finish which adds drama to an otherwise traditional piece.
