The challenge: Dressing for a formal affair. You want sleek. You want cool. You want elegance. The solution: Giada, a Milan-based fashion house with a recent collection that elevates black-tie events to red-carpet spectacles. This season, keep your eye out for a chartreuse-paillette-embellished sheath, a strapless white tuxedo dress, a delicate lace gown, and a diaphanous floral cami-maxi that’s sure to turn heads.
