All ivory. In a place made of dust. A halter top with bustier seams, a belt with a covered buckle, satin wide-leg trousers and a long chiffon kimono. A felt hat, carried. I sat on the floor anyway. Wear it before sunset, and stay away from red wine.

Ivory from neck to floor: a halter top with bustier seaming, a covered-buckle belt, satin wide-leg trousers and a long chiffon kimono.

The top is ivory crepe with a high neck and halter armholes, seamed across the front like a bustier, then cut close to the waist. A belt in the same ivory with a covered square buckle marks the join with the trousers: satin, high-waisted, wide enough to spread across the floor. The outer layer is a chiffon kimono, lightweight, with short fluted sleeves and a hem that trails.

Four textures in one colour is the whole idea: matte crepe, slick satin, chiffon that glows in direct sun, and a felt hat with a wide flat brim, carried more than worn. It suits a terrace in the desert before the heat peaks, saguaros behind, pale stone underfoot. Summer and spring. A flat sandal in tan leather, and nothing dark anywhere near it.

No black at all. People will ask if something happened.
