Leg Avenue Shimmer Sheer Lurex Rhinestone Keyhole Halter Dress

Lurex is metallic thread knitted into the fabric, which is how this dress shimmers without a single sequin on it. Add rhinestones, a keyhole at the chest and a halter neck, and you have a dress that does a great deal with a very small amount of material.

Sheer means a slip or a bodysuit underneath is a real styling choice rather than an afterthought, and either version works. Wear it with a heel and nothing else competing, because the keyhole and the shimmer are already two focal points. The halter neck ties, so set the length before you judge the fit. Hand wash in cool water, lay flat to dry, and store it flat rather than on a hanger so the halter does not stretch at the neck.

Lurex catches light continuously as you move, where a sequin only flashes when it turns. On a sheer ground it gives the whole dress a low shimmer that reads as expensive rather than as a costume.
