Just One Thing: A White Maxi Dress Is Summer’s Most Romantic Piece—Especially If It’s Dior
Here’s a whole new way to say yes to the dress: Wear it beyond the big day–or better yet, no matter the occasion. In a pleated, empire-waist maxi dress of cotton voile and Saint-Gall openwork embroidery by Dior, model Vittoria Ceretti showcases the look’s surprising versatility; she’s equally and elegantly at ease whether she’s playing the bride or hopping on the back of a bike. This is the latest in our series of outfits built around a single (fabulous) piece.

The White Dress
Window Dressing
On top of the gossamer-fine Dior dress, Ceretti sports a jumper trimmed with lace from Erdem. She finishes things off with high-low accessories: Adidas Gazelle sneakers and a classic Tiffany-set diamond ring from Tiffany & Co.
Kindred Spirits
Layered with a leafy trench coat, a Victoriana hat, and a vintage-esque purse by Maison Margiela, Ceretti is a dashing Miss Havisham—with better luck. Her stylish friend, meanwhile, mixes leopard and lace with aplomb.
Runaway Bride
No cold feet here—merely a bit of chill, which Ceretti handles with a chic Sacai trench that presents as a pea coat from the front and a cape from the back. Lace-up boots from Dolce & Gabbana give the outfit even more edge.
Pockets Full of Dreams
The age-old dilemma of the pocketless dress is solved instantly with the addition of Isabel Marant cargo pants. Amina Muaddi’s modern-day Cinderella pumps and Tiffany & Co. cuffs are the final touches.
Take Me to Church
Ceretti’s dress serves as the foundation for classic moto accessories: a fabulously fringed jacket and sunglasses, both from Versace. It’s a look that teeters between just married and just because.
