Link to example (may be sold out)

The goal is for this piece to mix and match with the rest of your clothes (or as much of it as possible!).

Here are some notes to help you find a style for this piece that is versatile. 

• Why it’s included in the capsule: A neutral dress is very classic piece in your wardrobe that can easily be dressed up or down! The most versatile style is knee-length and short-sleeved with very basic, clean lines, like a t-shirt dress or swing dress or fit-and-flare dress.
• Recommended Color Scheme: Neutral Color (Black, Navy, Gray, Olive, etc.)
• Recommended Sleeve-length: Short-Sleeve
• Options for Fit/Style: Any simple, casual style in knee-length, midi, or maxi length (maxi will have more limited shoe coordination)
• Hot climate alternative: Tank/sleeveless
• Cold climate alternative: Quarter-Sleeve or Long-Sleeve
• Alternatives: n/a
• Maternity & nursing mamas: Get in maternity style  | Get in nursing-friendly style or use regular style (maybe one with a lower neckline or one with buttons) with a nursing cami.
