Donna

Donna is the dress you don't have to think about. Two rows of gentle elastication sit across the bust, and everything below falls loose and easy in a soft A line. It works for a beach walk at nine in the morning and dinner at nine at night, exactly as it is.

An A line mini gathers softly from two rows of elasticated detailing at the upper bust, creating shape without a fitted bodice underneath. Nothing about the construction depends on getting the sizing precisely right.

The self fabric straps detach the same way as the rest of the collection, so Donna takes any strap from Strap Accessories: beaded, pearl, or gemstone, in seconds.

For anyone who wants one easy dress that doesn't need a fitting, a zip, or a second thought before it's on. Worn loose with flat sandals for daytime, or with a statement strap and a slightly dressier shoe once the sun's down. It doesn't need layering to work either way.

Offered in white paisley lace, cotton olive stripe, or poplin in espresso and black, each finished with the collection's baby stitch hem. The elasticated bust does the fit work, so the rest of the dress is left to move freely. Put it on. That's the whole plan.
