Suzy Bae wore a Dior cowl neckline dress and you should try this style too

We have a few to thank for the cowl: the Ancient Greeks (think togas), 1930s Hollywood glamour, and of course '90's darlings Carrie Bradshaw and Rachel Green. But what recently sparked our fond memories of the feminine neckline was seeing South Korean actress Suzy Bae stroll down the red carpet of the 56th Baeksang Arts Awards in Seoul in an ecru cowl neckline gown from Dior.

Characterised by its drapes and folds created by excess fabric, the cowl neckline flatters the collarbone and cleavage area for an effortlessly sexy look. From slinky satin slips to utility-inspired jumpsuits, here are some of our favourite cowl neckline picks, starting from $30.
