My curiosity was piqued when I saw this photo in my InStyle magazine. 
And I mean piqued big time!

I liked the funky "lacing" on the Chanel stockings but the dress instantly spoke to me.  I liked everything about it and, unless the thing is backless, it is a very modest dress from a high-end designer, which doesn't happen too often.  Truly. 
The designer was naturally credited in the magazine and so I hit the net to hunt her down. Along with Nannette Lepore, this Sophie Theallet may just be my new favorite designer for my romantic girly side.  Here's the 411 compiled from her website, the wiki, and Style.com...

Born in the South of France, (living in the US), Sophie Thealletfell in love with fashion when she discovered Vivienne Westwood and the punk fashion scene in London in her early teens. At 18 she attended Le Studio Bercot in Paris, from which she graduated one year earlier after winning the National Young Designer Award. She was then commissioned to designed a collection for the prestigious department store le Printemps in Paris. She worked with  Jean-Paul Gaultier where she learned and discovered the basis of creating coherent collections and the audacity of Fashion ideas and statements. A few years later, she moved on to Azzedine Alaia where she would come to truly mature has a designer. During her 10 years as Alaia's right-hand women, she was fully immersed in the world of haute couture. She worked on the main collections, accessories, and knitwear, learning directly from the couturier. In the Spring of 2006 she launched her Sophie Theallet label in NY, which was immediately recognized by the Fashion insiders and is now sold in the best specialty stores in the USA and Europe.  Sophie recently won the big CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund purse!

So let's take a look at my favorite looks so far.
This dress, naturally, that I somehow must have in my life.  Different color from the blush pink SJP wore above.  I like the pink.

So summery!!  And still modest.

That deep neckline would need a cami but who cares!

Unexpected colors done in a reserved way.  Nice.  I'm in love with all these elbow-length sleeves and knee-length hemlines.

Another cami needed but I love the bronze and dark, shimmery gray.

The long dangling ties are fun! Perfect sleeves and hem length!

Simple and so wearable!

Love it!!  I know exactly the necklace and earrings I would wear with this!

Muted pink and green.  Soft and lovely.

Begs to be worn while dancing!  Even if only in the kitchen.

Triple tiered skirt takes a wrap dress up notch.  Love it and love the wide waist tie.

Column dresses are so often sleeveless this was very refreshing to see. 
Hoping it's not backless!
