The Capetown Dress - by TIBI


As a style guide for Cape Town, it would be professionally remiss of me not to profile one of the spring/summer 08 ‘it dresses’, the Capetown dress by TIBI. Available in red and the photographed yellow, this silk crepe sleeveless dress with an embellished neckline, is worn as a mini by the young and slim of leg, and as a gorgeous tunic by others.

From the latest collection by designer Amy Smilovic for TIBI, based on Out-of-Africa-meets-the-50s, this dress is a huge success for the large international department stores and Net-a-Porter.

How fitting then that it should be named after our beautiful city.
