Thakoon Thakoon Addition Twist Front Lace DressThakoon Addition Twist Front Lace Dress at Shopbop.com imageThis model’s hair has got to go. Did they even try to make her hair look good?! Just sayin’…

This Thakoon dress, on the other hand, is a total keeper! It’s made out of this gauzy, delicate lace that practically floats when you move. This dress also features a V-neck and is finished off with all the fabric being swept toward the center into a twisted knot! See below for more info.

Thakoon Plissé Bustier at Shopbop.com

Thakoon Plisse BustierThakoon Plissé Bustier at Shopbop.com imageI don’t know about you, but when I hear “bustier” I think of something that looks a whole lot like lingerie. And therefore (in most cases) inappropriate to wear in public. But this Thakoon top gives “bustier” a whole new meaning!

This strapless top is tie-dye, believe it or not! That fact is hidden a bit (ok, a LOT) by the plissé effect (which is essentially crinkled fabric). The carefully draped material creates a sweetheart neckline. Boning at the bodice keeps this one in place!

Bias seams
Exposed zip at side
Nylon mesh lining
12″ long, measured from center back
Fabrication: Woven silk
Shell: 100% silk
Foundation: 100% nylon
Dry clean
Made in the U.S.A

Sizes: 0, 4, 6, 8

The original price was $970, but this is on sale at Shopbop.com for $679, making this the most expensive tie-dye shirt known to mankind! Free shipping both ways.

Thakoon Thakoon Addition Draped Pocket Tank DressThakoon Addition Draped Pocket Tank Dress at Shopbop.com imageOk, I admit it, I’m in denial when it comes to winter. I desperately wish it was summer and that I could wear clothes like these once again! Instead I have to resort to shopping for clothes like these. Almost as good, minus the warm weather.

This fuchsia tank dress by Thakoon is the epitome of summery goodness. So lightweight, and comfortable looking – you can’t possibly go wrong here! The elastic waist gives it some shape, and the draped pockets at the hips are super cute.

Sizes 2, 4 & 6

This was $800. Shopbop.com has it on sale (!) for $400 right now. Free shipping.
