Overdressed for sand. Correct. A forest green satin jumpsuit, padded shoulders, cut-outs at the waist, and one cape sleeve long enough to sweep the sand. The cape collects half the dune. I return it later. Wear it before dinner, somewhere flat. Cape behind the arm.
A forest green satin jumpsuit with waist cut-outs and a cape sleeve that reaches the sand. Evening wear, in the desert, before dinner.
A jumpsuit in forest green satin with a high round neck, padded square shoulders and a bodice pleated diagonally into a wide waistband. The waist is cut out at both sides, and from the right shoulder a full-length cape sleeve falls to the ground in a single panel. The legs are high-waisted and wide, with front darts that keep the satin flat over the hip.
It is evening wear by construction: an opening, a gala, a dinner where somebody else drives. Flat sand suits it less than a marble floor would, but the low sun does things to green satin that a chandelier cannot. Best in spring or on a summer night; hair straight, no extra layers, nothing competing with the cape.
Colour, on me, in daylight. Mark the date. The desert was thirty-eight degrees and the satin did not care, so neither did I.
