The [Michael Kors Spring/Summer 2015 campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michael-kors-x-montauk-yacht-club) displays its current collection via a shipwrecked Karmen Pedaru. In the series produced by photographer Mario Testino, Pedaru posed while on a boat, making it appear as if she was preparing for a chic trip abroad.

Displayed in the image taken by Testino is a [pale nautical scene](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/set-sail). Cream lighting obscured Pedaru who posed in an [elongated floral dress](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marie-oliver) patterned with bright pink flowers and green leaves, additions that are certainly well-suited to warmer temperatures.

A drooping neck line makes this Michael Kors piece all the more daring. Pedaru sported the accent with determination, standing which much intensity in front of the ropes and a sailing crew. Evidently, confidence is at the heart of this collection.
