PIOLdress.com is a revolutionary website by which any woman can design the perfect, go-to dress - in color, style and fit - that completely suits her body. Using advanced make-to-measure technology, hundreds of beautiful fabric, and an intelligent system of design, PIOL offers customization at its highest level. Inspired by Edith Head, famed costume designer during Hollywood's Golden Age, the PIOL Dress system is three-fold:
First is COLOR, Depending on the color of your hair, eyes and skin, there are certain colors that make you "pop." PIOL offers a variety of fabrics from Italy, France and Japan in colors and prints that are designed specifically to highlight your individual color. If you have dark colored hair, you may have noticed that the color scheme they offer you consists of many earth tones. Though these hues work with my physical features, I wanted a pastel color for summer. So I played around with the hair and eyes options to find the pink featured in these pictures.
Next is STYLE. PIOL has five different sihouettes - each with its own selection of neckline, skirt and sleeve length. You can easily find the perfect cut that will show off what you like most and camouflage the rest. I have been in search for a good funnel neck dress and this was my opportunity to finally create the perfect shift dress. I am petite in size so I chose the shortest possible skirt size and I opted for a sleeveless dress.
Third is FIT. Most women are not perfectly proportional from top to bottom nor do they fit into the standard sizing of a typical dress. Using your body measurements, PIOL will custom make a dress that is guaranteed to fit you better than anything you can find off the rack. After choosing your color, neckline, skirt style and sleeve length, PIOL will prompt you to select your height, bust, hip, and waist measurements.
PIOL's unique understanding of color, style and fit allows you to create a dress that cannot be found anywhere else. Hand sewn in NYC, the dress will arrive in 3-4 weeks with the ability of a full refund for the price of the dress. I absolutely love the style and color of this dress - I believe it embodies Jackie O's simple yet extremely sophisticated sense of style. Check out PIOL's website HERE.
I completely forgot to post this! Life was a bit hectic during school and for those following my blog, you saw how scarce my posts were. Not going to lie, spring quarter was a beast... it certainly kept me occupied days and nights. Anyways, I bought a bunch of items from Victoria Beckham for Target collaboration the first day it came out! The Target near my home still had a good quantity of items in stock though my size was pretty much gone. Those following my Instagram Stories saw that I actually bought a girls XL dress (not the one pictured in this post but the scallop one) because adult sizes were gone! I've since worn this dress twice, once briefly for Easter brunch and the second time was my first day of summer research! It was a humid day and I drove from one hospital to another - turns out I'll be dividing my time between 2 of the 3 Palomar Hospitals in San Diego! It's going to be one busy summer! To all my readers, pharmacy candidates and fashion aficionados, what would you guys like to see more of? I want to experiment this summer while I still have free time!
