Lavie Blue Floral Halterneck Maxi Dress

The Lavie Maxi Dress is a blue floral maxi with a halterneck, cut long through the skirt and open across the shoulders.

The print sets the mood: florals in blue, which reads calmer than pink or red and sits comfortably between daytime and evening. The halterneck fastens up behind the neck rather than over the shoulders, so the arms are bare and the back of the neck is the focal point from behind. Below that the dress runs straight to maxi length, giving the floral room to repeat down the whole skirt.

This is a maxi dress for long warm days that turn into evenings: a lunch that becomes drinks, a summer wedding, a holiday where one dress has to do several jobs. Sandals in the afternoon, a heeled sandal later. Put the hair up so the halterneck shows, choose earrings over a necklace, and let the blue floral carry the colour while everything else stays neutral.
