Sofia Carson Ascends Empire State in Ethereal Pleats

Stepping onto the observatory deck, she wasn’t simply wearing a dress; she was embodying a feeling. The look is a cascade of off-white pleats—chiffon, perhaps, or a gossamer-fine crepe—that seems to float around her with every gust of wind. It’s an homage to a bygone era, a look that feels plucked from the 1970s and given a clean, modern restraint. I am obsessed with the details: the high neck, the delicate pussy-bow collar, the long, elegant sleeves that billow out like a whisper. The dress itself feels like a protagonist.
