The Edit
A deep open back — scooped to the waist, held by racer straps — is the structural story here. The body is lightweight jersey, cut close through the torso, then the skirt breaks into a diagonal openwork lattice before dropping into long, floor-grazing fringe that swings from an asymmetric hem. No closure, no hardware: the whole construction relies on the jersey's fit and the fringe's momentum.
Is now a good time?
