English Rose: Classic Trench and Lace Dress

6:00 PM

For this post we were inspired both by Wendy Nguyen and Burberry Prorsum’s Spring/Summer 2014 collection.

This tri-colored lace dress first caught our eyes after seeing a post of Wendy wearing a similar style dress by MSGM. We were convinced the dress was a good investment after seeing how Wendy was able transform it into a top, a skirt, and also a tunic.

At first we were hesitant about making a post with this dress because many other bloggers have done so already, but we knew we had to put this outfit together after seeing Burberry Prorsum’s latest collection. When you come across the name Burberry, the first image that pops into your head is probably their iconic trench coat, but head designer Christopher Bailey has been reinventing their iconic trench every season.

Bailey’s newest spin on their iconic trench was truly brilliant. After being inspired by an English rose, he successfully features elegance and romanticism in his collection by using a variety of lace patterns.

Our combination of a tri-colored lace dress and trench coat pays homage to Bailey’s latest collection, and highlights Wendy’s creativity when styling a single dress.
