Parading her brand's show-stopping piece—the $1,100+ "Emma" crochet dress—Egle Ruskyte shared her beachy chic with Instagram. Her sun-soaked vacation ensemble not only highlighted the attention to detail of her fashion brand but also solidified her increasing influence as both influencer and designer.
Fashion designer Egle Ruskyte turns heads in her trademark Emma crochet dress on beach vacation
Egle Ruskyte—also Instagrammed as @eglehulkenberg—posted a set of shots where she stood with confidence on a sun-kissed boardwalk and beneath striped awnings. The handmade crocheted Emma dress had a flared open-knit skirt and is priced at more than $1,100. Set against the striped beach chairs, weathered wooden awnings, and yellow sand, she is seen playfully kicking a surfboard emblazoned "Jacquemus," another luxury brand name and a possible visual conversation between old guard and new guard designers.
Ruskyte's resort wear campaign fits in with her label's vision—to create ageless, feminine shapes out of eco-friendly materials and ancient crafts.
