Peter Dundas took Emilio Pucci in a sultry new direction for FW12, and this pleated silk-chiffon LBD is a striking update on the sartorial classic. Falling just below the knee, this stunning design is scattered with bead-embellished velvet appliqués that catch the light beautifully as you move. Pay homage to the runway styling and wear yours with braided hair and minimalist makeup.

Shown here with: Lanvin earrings, Oscar de la Renta belt, Roland Mouret boots, Bottega Veneta clutch.
