Stella McCartney Embellished Crepe Maxi Dress

Sleek, statuesque minimalism gets a sharp injection of old-school Hollywood glamour in this evening dress from Stella McCartney, which occupies a genre of Nineties-inspired, reductive formalwear. The column silhouette hugs the contours of the body before pooling gently at the floor, creating a stark, obsidian shadow that relies entirely on cut rather than volume or layers for its impact.
