I’ve never been a slave to labels, rather always looking for good quality fabrication and cut. It doesn’t matter to me whether something is op-shop, high street or designer, I’m more interested in whether the garment is a natural fibre, how it’s cut and where it’s made.
No nasty nylon made in Bangladesh for me.
On the hunt for simple, modest and fashionable clothing to take with me on my recent trip to Jordan, I stopped into Sussan and found this shift dress that ticked all of those boxes. How I’m wearing it in these photos was not how I wore it in Jordan, rather I wore pants underneath and a long sleeve jacket on top. But it worked as a tunic, and I love how it’s become a piece that can be worn so many ways.
Simple and chic, not something I usually aim for with my fashion sense but you have to step outside your comfort(or in this case extremely comfortable) zone sometimes…right?!
What I’m wearing:
Dress: Sussan
Necklace: Ottoman Empire, Sydney Rd Brunswick
Sunglasses: House of Harlow 1960
Heels: RMK
Bag: Foley & Corrina
