Ramona Maxi Dress

The Ramona opens with a sweetheart neckline and holds its nerve all the way down, which is more than most formal dresses manage. Ruching gathers the body so the shape comes from the fabric itself rather than from anything stitched on top.

That ruched finish is the reason to look twice, and it also keeps a long cut from going flat across the middle. The length runs to the floor and stays there.

It is simple to wear and hard to forget.
