Not jetting off to southern Italy this summer? Rejuvenating your wardrobe with summery Mediterranean flair just may be the next best thing. Channel your inner Sophia Loren with this casual, breezy Dolce & Gabbana number, which reimagines the classic A-line silhouette with a subtly sexy open back and a lively, statement-making print inspired by Italian maiolica tiles and pottery. Finish the look with cheeky cat-eye sunglasses and stylish platform sneakers. Now all you’re missing is the Vespa.
