In it's essence, this is a simple dress. It is a plain bodice and a straight skirt with a front wrap thing. Complicating it is that the dress is on the bias, but apart from that, reasonably straightforward. (I used Simplicity 4077 for the skirt, and McCalls 5661 for the top.) Other details - I cut the back bodice as one piece, and put the zipper on the side.
I kept walking back and forth from my laptop while drawing the skirt. It didn't work - my skirt is the mirror image of the inspiration. I also made one side too short - the inspiration skirt isn't quite as short.
But still, I'm pretty happy with this. It was a fun little project.
However, as I was making it, a sneaking suspicion was running through my head. Proenza Schouler or...?

Wilma Flintsone?
Weigh in, dear Readers, I implore you. I am thinking of wearing this to work (with tights, to cut down the amount of leg on display) - will I be the crazy girl yet again?
