Aussie designer
Rachel Gilbert knows that making an entrance isn’t all about show-stopping embellishments and extravagant silhouettes, as proven by pieces like the
Xavier dress from her eponymous label’s latest collection. Whipped up in a lustrous blend of cotton and silk, it’s shaped simply to a calf-skimming, column-like profile that’s topped with a dramatic, ruched, off-the-shoulder neckline that’s primed for showing off a string of jewels.
