Sophie Mini Dress

The Sophie was bought for warm days away and ends up outlasting most summer cocktail dresses. It is white, cut short, and easy enough to pull on over swimwear at noon and still hold up at eight.

Worth Knowing

• Length: mini, which is doing half the work here
• Color: white, kept clean with no print to argue with
• Wear it: beach by day, dinner by night

It earns its place for a reason: one piece, no styling problem to solve. Sand shakes straight out of it.
