A floor-length maxi dress requires a specific balance of height and comfort, a challenge Olivia Munn met with a professional eye for bohemian-chic styling during a Memorial Day gathering in Malibu.
Anchored by a deep purple Alberta Ferretti gown, the look serves as a lasting example of how minimalist footwear can ground a high-impact, textured garment.

Choosing to skip the traditional stiletto, Munn opted for a block-heeled sandal that complemented the relaxed, coastal atmosphere of the event without sacrificing the elegance required for a designer piece.
The dress, pulled from the Alberta Ferretti Spring collection, features a woven bodice held together by thin straps and a flowy, floor-length chiffon skirt.
