Surprise! The charming Colette looks like a button front dress, but don't be deceived! The real closure is the invisible zip hidden in the side seam. This pattern keeps you perfectly safe from prying eyes, so you can go braless on those sultry summer days. Even better, the dress features a somewhat higher waist – saving you from having to suck your tummy in. Colette is a girly sort of casual that still manages to look elegant thanks to the fitted top, A-line skirt and the slit at the front. Wanna bet that this dress will have you whistling a happy tune?
