Kick-start Social Season in PRABAL GURUNG’s Sleeveless Lace Print Dress

Embrace your inner muse with Prabal Gurung’s visionary sleeveless dress. Black lace print spirals across an ivory canvas of wool like calligraphy, capturing the joie de vivre of an uptown art-house gala. This bold graphic and high-contrast number is the ideal ensemble for admiring a Mondrian or socializing alongside white gallery walls. And is it just us, or does that svelte silhouette resemble a celebratory flute of champagne?

In any case, designer Prabal Gurung deserves a solid toast for his daring and sophisticated creations, which have clothed cultural icons like Michelle Obama, Demi Moore, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Oprah Winfrey. Gurung’s ability to unify class and edge have elevated him to the very top of his trade: the Nepalese-American designer draws on inspiration from seven years of world travel, while his resume boasts tutelage from Donna Karan, Cynthia Rowley, and Bill Blass. At a mere five seasons old, Prabal Gurung’s eponymous line already evinces the careful composition of a well-seasoned designer.

Case in point: Gurung’s sleeveless lace print dress. From its soft V neckline, to a figure-slimming A-line skirt and bright red waistband, this playful-yet-polished dress is one truly wearable work of art. Paired with sharp heels and quick wit, this dress will become your go-to once social season arrives.
