I had a long black tube skirt in high school that hit inches above my ankle which I wore it to death. It is probably those fond tube skirt memories that make me think a long knit dress looks so right now–they’re cozy, yet sexy. I love how the woman pictured paired hers with Alaia high-heeled sandals and an oversized belt. I hardly wear heels now so flat boots or slides (like the model from Jenni Kayne pictured far right is wearing) would be more my speed. I have tried on both the Totême dress and the Jenni Kayne pictured here and like them equally. Also, a long knit dress seems like the ultimate fall/winter packing essential that you can dress up or down, which is an added plus.
Sonia Rykiel dress, $880; Totême dress with buttons, $495; Elsa Peretti belt, $750; Alaia heels, $1300; Jenni Kayne sleeveless dress, $425.
