We're going to be honest with you: Our day-to-day doesn't provide us with much opportunity to wear sexy, baroque-print mini dresses in filmy fabrics that show more skin than our bathing suits. Ditto for that gorgeous, cut-out tweed gown the color of a field of poppies in Tunisia. But it's Carven, darling — practicality ain't the point; the pure, feminine fabulousness is.

Which means that we'll keep gazing at the amazing pieces ahead and dreaming of the day when our social calendars or our office dress code calls for Carven (sure beats business casual) — hey, even jeans and T-shirt gals can dream!
