This blue halter dress by Chiara Boni which I bought on sale from the store in Rome frees up the shoulders, arms and back to enjoy the summer warmth and breezes but maintains a modest length to just above the knee — making this dress easy to slip on and wear (wrinkle free, good for traveling). I add Repetto ballet pumps (also bought on sale via the online store) and a white leather handbag.
