Sea Island | Robe courte manches courtes - travertin

The cotton is genuinely on another level, so light on the skin but it still holds its shape after a wash. I've been living in it on hot days, it works for lounging and then out for coffee without looking like sleepwear.

I wore this to a garden lunch and the hand-picked cotton kept me cool the whole afternoon without wrinkling. The short sleeves hit at a flattering spot and the travertine shade goes with everything. It's pricey, but I've already worn it three times this week.

The cotton really is noticeably softer than any other dress I own, and it breathes well enough for hot afternoons. I've washed it twice already and it still looks exactly like it did out of the package.
