Wisteria Season in DC + The Dreamiest Zimmermann Dress

There are a few moments in DC that just hit every single year… and wisteria season is absolutely one of them. The soft lilac draping over historic walls, the way the light filters through those cascading blooms—it’s giving romance, it’s giving main character, it’s giving drop everything and get dressed up immediately.

This dress is one of those pieces that feels like it was designed for a moment like this. I’m wearing a dreamy Zimmermann midi dress with the most delicate floral detailing and the kind of silhouette that just moves beautifully with every step (and yes, every twirl).

And let’s talk about this bag.

I paired the look with the cutest tulip bag, which felt especially fitting because—fun fact—my name, Lauleh, actually means tulip in Farsi

So yes… I am legally obligated to love anything tulip-related.

But beyond the meaning, the shape adds such a fun, sculptural element to the outfit. It’s a little unexpected, a little playful, and ties the whole look together.

Spring in DC never gets old, and wisteria season is one of those little windows where everything feels extra beautiful. Pair that with a statement dress, a meaningful accessory, and a little sunshine… and you have the perfect spring moment. Now excuse me while I go find the next set of blooms to match my outfit.
