Balloon Ruched-Cotton Halter Maxi Dress

Brooklyn-based Taehee Park’s romantic essentials highlight understated body parts — like the under-bust and collarbone — with traces of vintage finds and her Southeast Asian roots. Each piece is designed to “stand out in a crowded room” and “be worn with minimal effort,” says Park.

Cut from double-lined Pima cotton, the 'Balloon' dress has a roomy fit inspired by the voluminous skirt shape of traditional South Korean Hanboks.
