Emilie
The Emilie dress is your dream gown. On seam pockets. Maxi length. Three sizes. In the most exquisite linen blend that is breathable and drapes.
This item is made in our studio in Upstate, NY. Printed in Bali with ecologically friendly pigment inks. The linen blend has a beautiful drape and soft hand. Due to the scale of the print, print placement varies on finished garments.
Named for the 20th century designer Emilie Floge.
This print took us two years to develop from an early 20th century Tahitian postcard.

This item is cut and sewn in the USA at our Upstate NY studio unless otherwise noted. It is made to order (MTO) as part of our effort to simplify production and avoid inventory waste.

For our clothes we only use biodegradable fabrics- no synthetics or blends that create microplastics. For our bathing suits we use recycled Italian ECONYL- the best option on the market now. For our printing (silk screen and digital) we use ecologically friendly pigment dyes. We do not “soften” or industrially wash our items as part of the very toxic “finishing” process at the factory. Because of this our clothes are stiffer at first but last longer
