You have fond memories of writing and receiving letter after letter from an old love, but today, styled all too playfully in this black dress by Bernie Dexter decorated with bouquets, doilies, and dots, you smile that you’re committed completely to yourself and your style. As a makeup maven, a pin-up model, and a ‘50s-inspired fashion designer, Bernie Dexter knows how to set the scene for stunning style, starting with the ruched bodice of this A-line dress. With a colored piece of paper in one of this frock’s pockets, you reread enlightening lines of encouragement that you’ve written as reminders to yourself. As you step a cream peep toe onto the stage, with a small locket hanging from behind this back-zipped dress’ tied halter, you hear roaring applause and begin your speech on the empowerment of dressing flirtatiously and fun!
