Audrey Knit Dress

Very Audrey.

Everyone knows an Audrey.

The French writer Colette (frizzy henna curls, bright rouge circles on her ancient cheeks) is being pushed in a wheelchair through the dining room of the Hôtel de Paris in Monte Carlo.

Suddenly, she sees this unknown wide-eyed beauty and raises a bony finger: “Voilà! That’s my Gigi!”

I met my wife, Audrey, at Scotty’s outside Tappan. She always seemed to bring her dates there the nights I worked.

Along with the Vermeer face and dancer’s legs, Audrey has a knack for wearing exactly the right things, from big floppy hats to ballet flats, and turning them into classics.

Audrey Knit Dress (No. 7259). Our classic Boatneck Ballet Tee dramatically reimagined as a form-loving knit dress in silk long-staple pima cotton. We added bit of stretchy stuff for a wonderful fit. Pull-on style with a wide scoop neck to show off your fabulous collarbones. Falls below the knee. Imported.
