There is a slit cut into the end of each sleeve. It serves no function - the sleeve is three-quarter length and does not need to open - and it is the reason the dress reads as designed rather than merely made.
The rest is quietly precise. A soft funnel neck rolls once at the throat without closing tight, a narrow belt buckles at the natural waist, and the skirt wraps across the front so one edge overlaps the other and opens into a slit as you walk. The crepe is matte, dense and completely without shine.
It is the dress that gets worn to the thing where you are not sure how formal the thing is.
