Because the smart casual style is relatively timeless, it isnt really influenced by short-lived fashion trends
However, this has been so consistently strong and well-written that when it dips into more well-worn tropes and tries to justify keeping its leads apart for mostly narrative reasons rather than character ones, I have to call that out too
I got so many looks when I wore this out, and although not everyone could figure out right away what I was, once I said, Gaga, they said Meat dress!!! Im going to wear this one again this year
Most importantly, losing the train does detract from the elegance of the dress
The Knot Vendor Marketplace will also show you some top designers carried at each salon, as well as any awards they may have won from The Knot (spoiler alert: we only feature the best of the best)
