U s h

season comes with its own set of rules for dressing up. One such is the necessity of statement pieces. This season’s focus on gowns is ideal, for it allows you to pair a choker with your new Valentino (there’s a luscious red lace one to be tried on) or Bibhu Mohapatra’s sheer crimson numbers. Let ‘less is more’ be your mantra, and let only a single piece do the talking. But if you must, then make like Tod’s and do only a cuff and earrings, leaving the

neck bare.
