When it comes to long, dreamy and detailed dresses, nobody does it better than Emilio Pucci. Channeling the ghosts of fashion's past with its stunning '70s aesthetic is today's loose-fitting silk maxi number, which I have digitally pulled—that is, dragged to a die-for-this folder on my desktop—straight from the Italian house's pre-fall presentation. 

Arguably my favorite look from all the pre-season offerings, I am honestly moved to tears by every attribute of this floor-length frock. Crafted of delicate printed silk with long bell sleeves, ruffles throughout and a high front slit—OOC!—it is simply exquisite. Want to convey your own Pucci-inspired ensemble in the upcoming season? Rock a like-minded maxi dress with a leather belt, knee-high boots and statement earrings. xoRZ
