THE NEW DRESS CODE
Posted:
It's Party Season and we are so excited about the upcoming events, especially Cup Week in Christchurch! We spend the whole year looking forward to the longer days, warmer weather and, of course, the end of the year parties...
This week we bring 6 different outfits (inspired by Christchurch Cup Week's main events) to help you find the party look that best suits you. Our tip: keep in mind that dresses aren't your only option... Break the rules and step out in elegant floating pants and jumpsuits. Don't be afraid to break away from the classic dress and heel combo and try some alternative looks which are sure to grab the right kind of attention!
LOOK 1:
If you are after a longer dress while still maintaining a floaty, light and summery feel, the Quantify Dress is the perfect option. With sheer and matte layered panels, this edgy and elegant dress provides a statement racing look. The sheer fabric keeps the dress light around the legs and stops it becoming too heavy. Team with dark accessories and shoes for a winning look with a twist.
LOOK 2:
A red hot look that will keep you out of a dead heat at the Christchurch Casino New Zealand Trotting Cup this Race Week is the Relief Tunic. In gorgeous 100% crushed silk, pair it will a belt to create shape in your silhouette and even add a textural element to finish it off with the Creature Clutch.
LOOK 3:
If you feel like breaking the rules this racing season, step away from standard dress and heels combo and team the pleated Diversity Pants with a well cut top. The combination of flowing pants and tailored top will maintain elegance and poise in your look, making it the perfect option for those who don’t like wearing dresses, or those who want to make a fashion statement.
LOOK 4:
Keep it sleek in black and charcoal with the Trinity Dress and stunning Diaz Rocio Clutch*. Add edginess to the look with the MM6 Eyelet boots* and Glass Bead Bracelets by Nikki B. The beautiful pleat details will flow out of the tailored panels for a graphic geometric inspired look.
LOOK 5:
Another break away from the dress at the Christchurch Show Day Races is to try a jumpsuit. New in stock, our gorgeous Utility Jumpsuit in ivory is the perfect piece to team with neutral or bright shoes. This fashion-forward, trendsetting look could make you the ‘best bet’ to swoop the fashion in the field this year.
LOOK 6:
Glamour and sophistication come to mind with the Epoch Dress. Adorned with beautiful hand sewn feather embellishments on the front panel and a silk satin back, this dress is the perfect classic piece for the races. Pair with the edgy Eyelet Boots by MM6* to toughen your look and stand out from the crowd with a breath of originality.
