Bronze Bombshell

A recent California transplant from Brooklyn, New York, I find it my duty to celebrate all things borough. Stationed at my home base, Caitlin Mociun designs cutting-edge fashion while incorporating sustainable fabrics such as hemp, organic cotton, and bamboo.

Jump on the season’s metallic trend with this aerograph print tie dress in bronze (made of a silk/hemp blend). You’ll be the talk of the town. Now, I’m a woman who loves refined tailoring, but I’ll admit that I’m drawn to Mociun's loose-fitting style because it means that I can eat like a horse and not have to worry about maintaining a self-induced tummy tuck for the rest of the night. I love how the form is unrestrictive yet still creates glamorous shape with a framed bust and empire waist. I would pair it with opaque black tights and some new patent Mary Janes - or be daring and flaunt bare legs with knee-high boots. $390.
