Red carpet gowns are nice, but life doesn’t always call for statement fashion. As temperatures rise, even celebrities appreciate the allure of easygoing designs. Case in point: when Dakota Johnson went for a stroll in Los Angeles this weekend she didn’t bother to go glam. Instead, the actress opted for casual vibes and a gingham sundress by New York-based contemporary label Wray. Black check with a belted waist and lightweight double-faced cotton fabric, the look was ideal for a low key Sunday away from the glare of the spotlight.

Accessorized with Gucci loafers and her trusty “old Celine” edge bag, Johnson’s outfit was understated and elegant, exactly the qualities we’ve come to associate with her style. More than simply looking good, the dress meshed with the actress’ commitment to sustainability and ethical fashion. Founded by Parsons alum Wray Cook in 2015, the brand works with small, fair-trade manufacturers in India on sourcing handmade fabrics. Clearly their considered approach to fashion has struck a chord with one of Hollywood’s brightest stars.
