An editorial for garden-party season: romantic dresses, statement heels and party-ready accessories to wear among the blooms.
The Garden Party
Dresses and standout pieces for sun-soaked celebrations
The best garden party dresses bring a sense of occasion without losing their ease. I’m starting with Leo Lin’s Ava jacquard bustier maxi, Emilia Wickstead’s draped satin midi, and Agua by Agua Bendita’s floral-print pieces, then adding Savette and Gabriela Hearst bags for the finishing details.
