Description

There’s something wonderfully simple about a dress you can put on and instantly feel pulled together in. The Atrium Dress is crafted from Mela Purdie's signature Japanese Mache, allowing the full skirt to fall and move beautifully without feeling heavy. A crisp shirt collar and button placket add structure through the top, while clever seam detailing creates shape before flowing into the generous skirt. Sleeveless and wonderfully easy to accessorise, it’s a polished option for warmer spring days, travel and occasions when you want to look dressed up without feeling overdressed.
