Fleur de Beurre Linen Day Dress

$365.00

Edwardian linen day dress in fine white linen, with a softly scooped neckline, lace-trimmed cap sleeves, and an eyelet-drawn waist. The waist was originally designed to be threaded with ribbon for gentle shaping; a lace ribbon is included. Left unthreaded, the form falls softly and unstructured. The eyelet band also allows alternate ribbons to be woven through for variation. The linen drapes softly, with a subtle slub texture throughout. Fine handwork is visible across the bodice, including delicate floral embroidery and a central appliqué in a buttery tone, offering soft contrast against the white ground.
