Product Insights & Style Tips

Lafayette 148 New York Belted Pleated Dress arrives in Orange Poppy, a color that feels sunny, confident, and editorial. In 100% polyester, the fabric offers a smooth, structured drape. The belt at the waist teams with allover pleats to create a sculpted silhouette that reads polished for daytime meetings and bold enough for after-hours.

At the waist, the belt defines the line while the pleats move with you, keeping the shape clear without adding bulk. The XS cut offers a lean profile that layers neatly under a blazer or lightweight cardigan and partners equally well with heels or pared-back sandals. From desk to dinner, the dress transitions with a few accessory shifts, staying sharp as the setting changes.

Priced at 1598, this piece embodies Lafayette 148 New York's clean-line, modern-luxe ethos. Styling notes: pair with pointed-toe pumps and a structured bag for day, or elevate with metallic sandals and minimal jewelry for evening.

Style Check

Aesthetics: 9/10

Bold, sun-bright orange pops against minimal styling, commanding attention with a sculpted, belted waist and evenly spaced pleats that swing with every step. The midi silhouette reads editorial-forward, balancing structure and movement. The belt adds definition, while the monochrome color keeps the look versatile enough for both event dressing and elevated daily wear.

Craftsmanship: 8/10

From the image, the pleats fall cleanly in even repetition, and the belt appears neatly integrated with precise seam lines along the waist. The overall finish reads premium, with smooth drape and controlled volume. While polyester can read less tactile than silk, the tailored bodice and crisp hem suggest thoughtful construction and care.

Affordability: $$$

The value aligns with its design and Lafayette 148's reputation for refined aesthetics. The vibrant color, structured pleats, and belt promise an elevated, editorial-ready presence that feels worth the investment for standout occasion wear. While the price sits at the higher end, the dress's enduring silhouette justifies the cost for a premium capsule piece.

Miyawaki Sakura’s Oversized Jacket and Sheer Tights Combo – Get The Look

Miyawaki Sakura of LE SSERAFIM knows exactly how to make one black jacket carry an entire outfit. The singer stepped into a glossy high collar leather look that feels sharp, simple, and very on the pulse, with an oversized jacket layered over black micro shorts, sheer tights, and a belt with a bold gold buckle. It is the kind of outfit that hits the current celebrity style sweet spot, polished enough for a night out and stripped back enough to feel believable off camera. The shape does most of the work here. The jacket sits big through the shoulders and body, the shorts keep the styling compact, and the tights make the whole thing feel more intentional than a standard leather on leather pairing.
