THE HITCHED LIST: ‘Less-is-more’ – our top 5 silk dresses and accessories that elevate

It’s no secret we are big fans of an effortless ‘less is more’ look. To that end, we feel it’s hard to go passed a sexy silk slip or gown, which beautifully highlights a woman’s natural figure, drawing the eye with subtle movement. The silhouette combined with ease-of-wear and subtle yet striking accessories, creates the perfect less-is-more ensemble. Delicate, elegant and captivating.

And the best part, this style suits most occasions – engagement party, wedding or just a casual dinner with friends.
