It’s harder than it should be to find work dresses that fit, flatter, AND are stylish. Should be easy, right? Marina Ufaeva had the same issue working for a major Wall Street firm. She desired clothes that were reasonably priced, fit well, and could go from the office to drinks afterwards. Instead of complaining, she created emploi, a line of comfortable and beautiful dresses. With employ, Ufaeva says, “our goal is to let a woman feel fashionable, feminine and unique on her own terms.”

emploi was kind enough to send me the Dupont Dress and I love how it skims the curves without being too revealing for the office, that the gathered skirt doesn’t add bulk but hides a tummy, and how the thick fabric gives good drape and opacity. The details are what take this dress from ordinary to extraordinary and show the thought put into a garment for a professional yet stylish woman.
