I don't have a green thumb (or a backyard for that matter) but I’d be inspired to throw a garden party in this shantung frock. The verdant pattern of the Chantilly lace is like a walk through the Jardin de Luxembourg. The coral-hued neoprene belt is like a walk on the Lower East Side. Who's up for champagne on the fire escape?
