Splurge Monday’s Workwear Report: Sheath Dress with Twist Waistband

Our daily workwear reports suggest one piece of work-appropriate attire in a range of prices.

I don’t usually feel compelled to spend nearly $2k on a single article of clothing, but this dress from Carolina Herrera is making my hand slowly creep toward my AmEx. The color is very Elle Woods, the shape is very Claire Underwood, and that unholy union is kind of my sweet spot.

For an office look, I would keep all shoes and accessories very simple and really let the dress shine.

The dress is $1,990 at Neiman Marcus and comes in sizes 0–22.

Two dresses that are more affordable are from Ann Taylor (on sale for $111.30; petite and straight sizes) and CeCe ($129 at Dillard’s; 14W-24W).
