Though we haven't through about "tube" dresses since middle school, this dress from Balenciaga's 2016 Resort collection is forcing us to reconsider.

With its strict corset pinching bodice combined with statement ribbon lasso'ing up the front, we can't help but gawp at Kerry's look for the Global Citizens Festival.

We love the bold contrast between the ribbons and dress, it's both youthful and flirty. Kerry paired this outfit up with heels, naturally but it could look just as cute paired down with some white tennis shoes for a more sporty casual ensemble.

Unfortunately, Kerry's dress is not yet available for purchase but since it hails from Balenciaga's resort collection, it will be made readily available for you just in time for weather to start heating up during your winter vacay.

That being said, we've sourced a few options in our edit below to hold you over till then. Have a look!
