Emerald satin jumpsuit with a high neck and side drape
A high-necked emerald satin jumpsuit with ruched short sleeves, a draped side panel and legs gathered at the ankle over black boots. Sand, wind, last light.
One piece of emerald satin from the collar to the ankle. The neck is high and stands up in a narrow band; the sleeves are short, ruched and gathered at the hem so they puff over the upper arm. A fitted bodice with a seam at the waist, and from that seam a long panel of the same satin drapes down the left side to the knee and moves on its own. The legs are full and gathered into a soft cuff at the ankle. Black leather ankle boots with a pointed toe and a stacked heel.
This is what to wear when the evening is somewhere with no walls: a desert road, a terrace, an airport at the wrong hour. Spring and autumn, the warm end of either. The colour does the work, so the shoe stays black and the hair stays down.
Sand in the boots, satin in the wind. One of those was planned.
