The Josefa Asymmetric Dress: The Art of Modesty vs. The Art of Enchantment

The Josefa Asymmetric Dress in Royal Blue and Chocolate is a statement piece that seamlessly transitions from work to after-dark fun. The comfortable cotton/nylon/spandex Ponte blend offers a flattering fit, while the long sleeves and midi length ensure work-appropriate attire. But the magic lies in the functional exposed gold zippers:

• Exposed Gold Zipper on Right Sleeve: Unzip to show off your collarbone and shoulder for a single off the shoulder look, and a tantalizing touch of intrigue. Or leave it zipped closed for a more conservative look.
• Front Left Skirt Slit with Exposed Gold Zipper: This zipper is located along the princess seam and goes up to the waist.  Leg it up, and zip it open exposing as much leg as you like, or zip it closed for a more demure look.

Style Inspiration and Accessorize for Impact:

• Office Chic: Maintain professionalism with all zippers zipped. Pair the dress with pumps or flats and some small gold earrings to accent the gold zippers.
• Party Ready:  Perhaps leave the skirt fully zip and only opt to unzip the shoulder zip, so a hint of mystery and class remains. Pair it with some gold hoop earrings and some nude heels.
• Drinks After Dark: Whether it’s a romantic date night or night out with the girls, unzip the shoulder and leg zippers for a sexy look. The Josefa Dress empowers you to control the level of "sexy" with a simple zip. Swap flats for heels and add small gold statement earrings for a touch of glamour. Carry a small clutch that match your shoes.
• Spring vs. Winter: Although this dress is a long sleeve dress, it can also be worn in the spring time when the weather is still a little cooler with the shoulder unzipped & exposed, paired with high heeled sandals.  In the winter as the temperature drops, you can wear it with a pair of tights and boots.
• Balance is Key: Exposed zippers add an edgy touch, and are already an accessory, so avoid additional accessories that would compete with the zippers.

Key Features & Benefits for the Fashionista on the Go:

• Work to Wow in Seconds: The Josefa Dress boasts a high neckline and long sleeves, ideal for work environments. But its greatness lies in the exposed gold zippers which allow for its versatility. Unzip for a touch of intrigue or leave it zipped closed for a more conservative look.
• Adjustable Slit for Sophisticated Style: Feeling bold? The front left skirt slit with an exposed gold zipper allows you to control how much leg you reveal, creating a look that's can either be stylishly seductive or demurely sophisticated.
• Flatter Every Figure with Comfort You Can Move In: This versatile piece is crafted from a comfortable cotton/nylon/spandex Ponte blend offering both breathability and a flattering body-conscious fit.  It’s also bra friendly, whether you opt for an off the shoulder look and go with a strapless bra or a zipped up look and go for a traditional double strap bra.
