The Gisti Dress at Fashion L'amour
Girls, have you
ever looked inside your wardrobe and thought “wow, I own so much black!” or
have lots of the same shade or colour. Yet somehow you still find it difficult
to find that perfect multipurpose little black dress for all occasions… well, fear not, I have the perfect dress for you!
The ‘Gitsi Dress
in Scatter Rose’ by Motel Rocks is a unique and edgy take on the classic LBD,
however, it offers a subtle yet effective dash of colour to slowly introduce
your style and wardrobe to contrasting colours and patterns, making you stand
out from the rest. Its detailed (and small) rose print pattern is the perfect
touch for those who want to brave a bit of colour to their outfit without going
overboard. It’s a fun and flirty dress made from 100% Viscose making it feel
super light when worn and perfect for holidays if you want to pack light. It
can be worn in all seasons if accessorised correctly. Sprinkle your sweetness
and get hearts fluttering. The scattered rose is taking florals to the next level
and leaves the Gisti dress both sexy and sweet. This cutie also features a
sweetheart neckline with a capped sleeves and wrap detail skirt. Complete with
tights, a denim or leather jacket and a Chelsea boot (or even Vans/Converses)
for trans seasonal styling, or a casual ‘dressed down’ look. It’s the perfect
outfit for date nights or even Valentine’s Day with its romantic red rose print
– making it tie in nicely with the seasonal theme. So, get your pins out and
crack out some cute and sexy red or black heels! This dress is the one to make
you feel confident and proud to be a woman in any social setting.
I chose to dress
mine up for an evening event at the ‘Fashion L’amour’ magazine launch party at
‘Lover studios’ in Shoreditch. It was
ideal for that specific London setting:
edgy vibe with elements of vintage chic styling and people just looking
generally fierce and standing out from the rest. My dress is an XS and I found
the sizing guide on the Motel website was easy and simple to follow and my
dress fits me perfectly and comfortably. I wanted to make my Gisti dress a
statement piece that night so I chose to pair my outfit with some black thigh
high platform boots from ‘LAMODA’ www.lamoda.co.uk and accessorised with some
feisty 90’s inspired micro red tinted shades from ‘Hot Miami Shades’. (You can
get 20% off on any purchase on site if you choose to use my code ‘AISHAN20’ at
the checkout on www.hotmiamishades.com ). I chose to wear red sunglasses as
they matched so nicely with the red rose details on the black dress. I would
say my overall look was “90’s vintage grunge girl meets sexy French chic”. The
overall outfit combination was a success and people loved the look, it’s
amazing what a little detailing and colour can do to make a little black dress
pop.
A little bit
about Motel Rocks (in their words):
“Born from a love of vintage fashion, Motel is the must-have label
for girls who want unique, edgy and eclectic additions to their wardrobe that
are guaranteed to make an impact! Established in the late 90s, Motel was
created after the brand founders set out on a road trip of freedom, discovery
and fun across the west coast of America. Inspired by the indie vintage shops
and various thrift stores dotted along the Californian coastline, the Motel
designers set about bringing these looks to the British consumer and carved a
unique niche in the marketplace. Fifteen years later and Motel is now a leading
Brit fashion label renowned for offering unique prints, form-fitting
silhouettes and trend-setting styles that are loved by fashionistas, style
icons and celebrities around the globe.”
