If Lady Macbeth wore Athleisure…
Imagine my delight, considering my current preoccupation with dark, moody floral prints, when womenswear brand Me + Em sent over this georgette maxi-dress! It combines a new favourite thing (dark florals) with an all-time favourite thing (side-stripes) to create a dress that is so right for me it’s as though I daydream-designed it myself.
I don’t think that many people have ever successfully turned a tracksuit into a sheer-sleeved georgette maxi-dress but Me + Em have managed it with aplomb; the go-faster side-stripes, the drawstring waist, the zip that runs through the neck and down the chest…
I particularly like the zipped top, actually, because when it’s done up there’s something almost Victorian Matron about the high, smocked neck but when it’s undone it suddenly looks more like a (very luxe, floral) track top with a funnel neck. Very clever, very cool.
And the very first time I put this magnificent maxi on, I experienced an instant sense of drama; I felt like Lady Macbeth, gliding evilly around her castle, the train of her dress sliding over the floor behind her. Obviously the term “athleisure” didn’t exist in the time Macbeth was fictionally knocking about, but had go-faster stripes been all the rage then I’m pretty sure Lady M would have been wearing them. The racy minx.
So yes, I was Lady Macbeth, and I was also (at the same time, because my overactive imagination knows no limits) the star of Wutherin...
