Merlette Cypress Cotton Dress
From Moda Operandi
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. Crafted from a custom designed 100% cotton eyelet; the 'Cypress' dress in a warm ivory hue is a breathable; ankle-length style that exudes effortless sophistication. Custom eyelet embroidery lends an artisanal touch; while long sleeves with button cuffs and a full placket adorned with trocas shell buttons add classic refinement. A removable cotton slip allows for versatility—wear it as a coverup for sun-soaked days; or keep the slip on for a breezy yet opaque silhouette.
