8 Ways to Style Réalisation's Latest It Piece
Over the summer Réalisation’s leopard Naomi slip skirt soared to the top of every fashion girl’s wish list and was one of the most Instagrammed pieces of the season. It landed on the sellout list time and time again and could easily be called the summer’s biggest It piece. Now that we’re headed into a new season, though, it made me curious about which of the brands other items has the same viral potential—and I’m betting on their Amelia dress.
Recently spotted on Emily Ratajkowski on the streets of New York, her stamp of approval is an indication that the dress will soon be added to shopping carts across the internet. But the dress already has a long list of fans. Fashion girls like Emili Sindlev and Sabina Socol have been snapped wearing it and are demonstrating cool styling ideas for how to wear it.
I recently tried the dress for myself as well and feel like it’s the perfect end of summer piece that I’ll be wearing into the fall—swapping out sandals for boots and a coat to make it season-appropriate. Ahead, see eight ways to style Réalisation’s latest It piece and shop items inspired by the looks. Scroll to the end to order the dress for yourself.
I decided to try out the dress for myself and packed it on a trip to Italy. I kept things pretty simple and wore it on its own with a pair of leather sandals from Zara.
Emily Ratajkowski was snapped wearing the dress on the streets of NYC, pairing it with chunky sneakers, a snakeskin bag, and layered necklaces.
Fashion girl Emili Sindlev similarly paired her dress with chunky sneakers.
