Heels on rocks? No. A black wool blazer dress with pleated balloon sleeves, cinched by a wide leather belt embossed with scrolls. Black buckle combat boots underneath. The sleeves arrive a second before I do. I let them. Wear it anywhere the ground is uneven. Belt it tight.
A black wool blazer dress with pleated balloon sleeves, cinched with a wide embossed leather belt and grounded by combat boots on a rocky shore.
A black wool blazer dress with a notch lapel and a wrapped front that closes to an asymmetric hem above the knee, and the sleeves are the point: pleated and gathered into two balloon volumes that stand off the shoulder like folded paper. A wide black leather belt with a tonal embossed scroll pattern cinches it at the waist. Black leather combat boots with buckled cuffs at the ankle.
It is tailoring taken out of the office and put on rocks: the dress does the shape, the belt does the waist, the boots make it possible to stand on granite in a headwind. Spring and autumn, a coastal drive, a shoot, a day that ends somewhere with a fireplace. Lapel worn clean, hair straight, the black smartwatch and the beaded bracelet, small hoops. No tights; the left leg is already decorated.
The sea was loud. The sleeves were louder.
