Why it's worth it
The lace stripes are wide enough to feel graphic, not delicate — lingerie logic at editorial scale.
The Edit
Sheer black tulle with no lining — the dress is designed to be worn over something, the white shirt beneath part of the look's logic. Wide diagonal bands of floral lace cut across the front from shoulder to hip, then repeat at the back, creating the structure in an otherwise weightless silhouette. The hem is asymmetric and unfinished at its longest point, trailing several inches past the knee on one side.
