Style rule #35 : If you need to copy, copy DVF! I love the classic, feminine, timeless style of Diane von Furstenberg, but not always love the price tag! This front tie blouse in black chiffon by DVF is one such piece. I wanted this style in my budget. But most blouses were either too flimsy or too short on sleeves for me. Also, I wanted the lining in the shirt to avoid the hassle of camisole or see-through situations. My solution: get it tailor made! Buy some black chiffon, lining fabric and find a trusty tailor to do the sewing! Ta Da!
I wore a soft leather obi belt by ASOS on the skirt to give it a high waist look. This belt is pure awesomeness!

What a great look!! And I agree that having a tailor is so essentials. Anytime I have a piece of clothing tailored, it's customized for me.

Hi Jyoti,
ReplyDeleteSmart idea to get it made and especially with your own requirements catered for. I prefer yours with the darker front and that it negates the whole peeping problem.
I've been on the hunt for a white and black striped skirt, but am still not sure its the right fit with my wide hips. The joys of being a pear.
Have a fabulous week
