The buttons are the only thing in it that is not knitted. Seven of them, domed and pearlescent with a fine cut edge, running the full length of a rib that has no other interruption anywhere.
Against a fine matte knit they read almost as jewellery, and the dress is built to let them. A deep V opens between them at the neckline, a horizontal band of flat knitting marks the waist and breaks the vertical ribs, and below it the same rib continues into a short skirt. The sleeves are long and cut narrow to the wrist.
It is the closest a knitted dress gets to being dressed up, and it takes about four seconds to put on.
