Collar Dress – SET
Bag – Furla (black here)
Booties – Balmain
Sunglasses – Chanel
Hat – Chanel (similar here & here)

A timeless and classic fashion trend is the collar dress – best known in black and white, which is often associated with my beloved brand Chanel. Costume and uniform looks are part of many famous fashion houses’ collections like Balmain, Saint

Laurent, or Dolce & Gabbana and so is the black dress with a white collar – typically with white cuffs as well. Today I wear that kind of popular dress by SET, which is much more affordable but not less stylish.

The black short-sleeved piece of clothing is designed with a classic white Kent collar. The cut is straight and the fit is loose, therefor the dress very comfortable to wear! I especially like the part underneath the collar, where the fabric is different to the rest with a holey but regular structure in the shape of a rectangle. This almost see-through design detail breaks the usually very strict look of this kind of dress a little. I always love a skillful breach of style.

As the look is very “Chanel”, I decided to also wear some accessories by Chanel, a hat and sunglasses. These pieces are fashionable and timeless and they really suit the style of the SET collar dress, particularly in combination with my black Balmain Boots. The heeled booties are laced and tied together with a large bow. They are sexy but also girlish and playful, just like the dress. But I think you already noticed that I like to mix styles!

As an eye catcher I wear my silver Furla bag, which attracts attention due to the color. Even though it’s quite small, it is possible to fit in everything you need. And there are two straps in different lengths to carry it as a shoulder bag or a proper handbag. A perfect add-on for every woman!

I adore this look, as it is so strict but at the same time very playful because of the details. How do you like to wear your collar dress?
