The skirt flows down to the ground in a beautiful A-line that creates length and leanness

It is by Valentino so that is already one strong reason for perfection status and then the rest is due to the perfect cut and drape of the knit. It is just heavy enough to be able to hold the shape and drape perfectly but otherwise lightweight and since it is a soft wool knit it is the perfect warmth for cool evenings. It ties at the neck, slightly off side and the front and back are dipped slightly longer.
