Bold, bright and truly irresistible, this dress is made in the most vivid and joyful shade of candy pink cotton, its generous silhouette cut to make a bold statement.
The centrepiece is the lavallière collar, a romantic and deeply French flourish reinterpreted here in a crisp white print with trailing floral stems in mauve pink and sagebrush green. The collar cascades from the neckline in two elegant panels fastening into a loose bow upon the chest with effortless, garden-party grace.
The same floral print fabric reappears at the waist as a structured belt, tying the entire composition together with a considered and charming symmetry.
The hand-smocking at the centre of the waist is worked in tones that bridge the pink of the dress and the print of the collar. Below, the skirt falls in full, sweeping gathers, the bright pink cotton swirling magnificently with every step. Self-covered buttons fasten neatly at the back.
A dress that wears its French heritage with tremendous joy.
Louise de La Vallière was seventeen when she first walked the gardens of Versailles, and the King of France could not take his eyes off her. History remembers her grace, her lightness, the particular way she moved through a formal garden as though she belonged to it entirely. The collar that bears her name has been worn by the most elegant women in France ever since. This dress reimagines it for a new generation of little girls who walk through gardens with exactly that same joyful, unstoppable grace.
Composition : Pink cotton, fabric blend floral, cotton lining
