We are in the throes of summer in New York, but that doesn't mean it's all warm weather all the time. The extreme daytime heat is frequently followed by a relatively chilly and breezy summer night, so being expected to dress in an outfit that will seamlessly carry you from day to night is challenging.
Transitional outfits are the solution for this. They can be anything from light and airy long sleeves to a sleeveless but thick jersey dress à la Zosia Mamet at a luncheon yesterday celebrating Through Her Lens: The Tribeca Chanel Women's Filmmaker Program. Because it was both a Chanel and Tribeca Film Festival event, there were many awe-inspiring looks, but I was personally enthralled by Mamet's rainbow-striped outfit, a possible nod to Pride Month.
Mamet appropriately showed up in a classic look from the brand — a black, sleeveless shift dress with rainbow stripes and iconic interlocking "C" buttons. From far away, the stripes look like they're a solid color, but upon closer examination, "Coco Chanel" is written in small text within each stripe. The dress featured a heavyweight jersey and jacquard fabric with a miniskirt and sleeveless silhouette as a counterbalance. The actress added other classic Chanel accessories to her look, including a patent leather bag and chunky gold hoops.
