Why it works
A backless maxi walks better when the shoes say you're not trying — that's the tension that makes this work on a Tuesday sidewalk instead of a red carpet. The save is the necklace: at this length nobody reads carats, so it stays ten dollars in every rail. The dress is the event; everything else is refusal.
