I have a special event coming up, one that I’m really not sure what would be appropriate attire. It’s a tea. A proper afternoon tea for a very special event.
Pants are out. No matter how attractive or flattering, a tea is one of those events that calls for a dress.
Nothing boring, just a classic day time dress — and poof, my mind immediate went to Diane von Furstenberg’s wrap dresses.
First introduced in the 1970’s her wrap dresses were immediately successful, and since then have become a classes. Over the years there’s always several styles and and pattern in the collection.
This dress, in 100& silk jersey, is in a black island leaves pattern, with a collar and long sleeves. It sells for $325.
