Following an after-work surprise dinner date, you and your sweetie hold hands as you walk your town’s side streets back to your apartment. The setting sun through the trees casts branch-shaped shadows on the sidewalk, matching the print of boughs and flowers on your lovely shift by designer Darling. Based in London, Darling is your go-to designer for your feminine, flirty-yet-sophisticated pieces inspired by the most detailed and delicate of vintage garments such as this versatile dress, designed with slightly puffed cap sleeves and mirroring angled pleats above and below the waist for a tailored fit. Your ivory tights, braided brown belt, and goldenrod wedges complement this frock’s floral palette of golds, yellows, greens, and maroons over a pale mauve backdrop, while you and your paramour enjoy a relaxing evening stroll.
