WHY IT WORKS
The Prada White Mary Jane creates a strong color contrast against the black skirt. The shoe pulls the outfit toward something lighter and more effortless. The gold buckle echoes the warm tone of the scalloped hem's botanical texture. Where the Loewe sharpens into high-fashion territory, the Prada flat removes occasion-specificity and formality — the dramatic skirt suddenly reads more wearable and daytime.
