Founded in 2016 by designer Marina Cortbawi, Brooklyn-based Merlette thoughtfully crafts its garments from all natural, high-quality materials (cotton, wools and silks) with bespoke finishes — perfect for building a timeless wardrobe. The 'Laurus' dress is crafted from 100% breathable linen. This midi-length silhouette features a honeycomb hand-smocked neckline, an elegant detail that lends a touch of artistry. Adjustable shoulder ties allow for a customized fit. This breathable and lightweight piece drapes beautifully, creating a flowy and voluminous silhouette that moves with the wearer.
