THE LITTLE WHITE DRESS is always summer’s must-have item. Easy to wear and light as the breeze, it adds a certain ingénue quality that may be absent in the winter months, where cashmere and boyfriend jeans add a more masculine appeal. It’s the look of the innocent woman who can speak her mind when she wants to. For SS16, forget minimalism, for the LWD is embroidered, lacy, and floral — ethereal, yet grounded. Look no further than an embroidered crepon dress by Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, or one of McQueen’s exquisitely intricate lace gowns. For an undone look, pair with natural waves, slightly bronzed make-up, and subtle fine jewellery. When accessorising a little white dress, less is more.
