1. We love it for its flattering shape that nips Krysten’s trim waist in and proceeds to flaring so delicately over her hips. It clearly is made with the woman’s body in mind. Such a dress is perfect for when one wants to feel sexy without baring an indecent amount of skin.

2. We love it for its old-school charm. I’m sure Jackie O would approve. It’s a piece you can invest in and keep with you. Many years from now, it will still look classy and relevant.

3. We love it because of Krysten’s overall styling. She knows the dress has a structured, timeless appeal, so she went for equally timeless styling. The pair of classic white Jimmy Choo ‘Lilt’ pumps, the shiny Jimmy Choo ‘Tube’ clutch, and the simple do gave this a pared-down charm undaunted by all the other more elaborate outfits around her.

Another thing about the dress is that something similar is hard to find. In fact, we only managed to find two dresses that can be styled the way Krysten Ritter did in this ensemble.
