The power of fashion is transformative, especially at Paridaez, where the majority of owner Allison Daroie’s pieces can be worn multiple ways. Take the Albatross design, which works as a pencil skirt, dress or tank top, or the Hummingbird, a five-in-one skirt, shawl, scarf, hood and top combo. Made in Massachusetts, the neutral and blush-toned garments are ideal for women with limited prep time—including when you’re trying to pack a carry-on for a last-minute getaway.
