Bows. On me. Structured ones, so it counts. A floor-length cobalt satin gown, draped across the bodice and the hip, two metallic bows standing on the shoulders. Pointed black heel, no wrap, no clutch. The shoulders take up the room. I just stand under them. Gala, obviously.

A floor-length cobalt satin gown, draped across the bodice and hip, with two structured metallic bows standing at the shoulders.

Everything on this gown is one blue in two finishes. The body is liquid satin, draped diagonally across the bust and gathered at the hip into a folded panel that breaks the straight line of the skirt. The shoulders are built from a stiffer metallic weave, folded into two angular bows that stand away from the arm. The skirt is cut close to the floor with a slight flare at the hem.

It is a gown for a room with a ceiling: a gala, a winter dinner where you will not sit much. Hair down, straight. A pointed heel in black. No clutch; the hands sit on the hip or they do not exist.

The ballroom was empty. I prefer my rooms that way. The acoustics suit a heel.
