It’s impossible not to feel crisp and polished in By Malene Birger‘s flawlessly structured sheath. With strong, minimal lines, it’s Twiggy-era mod, but no vintage throwback here – Twiggy has grown up and this look is totally current, almost futuristic. Wear this out for the day and sashay it into the night, all with a slick switch of your shoes (and maybe the addition of a big bangle or three). Daytime flats assert a breezy, easy look – the modest, almost-boxy cut and light vanilla shade makes this suitable for breakfast. Trade flats for strappy heels come evening, and thanks to the leather paneling, you’re instantly dressed up – the bolder your accessories, the more cocktail-ready you’ll be. I love a dress that’s easy-going enough to change with your mood throughout the day; this one is surely an instant staple. On Net-a-Porter
