My Look of the Day is the Sea Monster Halton Dress from the Vivienne Westwood and her Autumn/Winter 2013 collection. Beautifully crafted in vivid cotton, this elegant piece has as a draped folded neckline and a tapered waist that’s finished with a full skirt. From a portrait dating back to 1592, the Sea Monster print is lifted from a gown belonging to Queen Elizabeth 1st. With the print hinting at lands explored far away for the greater good of the English Empire, Vivienne combines the Bruce of Kineard tartan overlaid with hearts, stars and the letters AR, symbolizing her stance “Active Resistance to Propaganda”. Made from 100% cotton. Price: $680 www.viviennewestwood.com
