Mela Purdie Villa Overshirt Bayleaf Print Silk
Description
For spring dressing without the predictable florals, meet Bayleaf. This striking new print brings together sweeping botanical shapes in earthy olive, stone, cream and deep brown, giving the Villa Overshirt a sophisticated, almost abstract feel. Crafted from Mela Purdie's beautifully fluid Silk Crepe De Chine, the generous silhouette falls softly away from the body with a longer curved hem and relaxed dolman sleeves. Pair it with pale neutrals for a fresh spring look, or lean into the deeper tones with chocolate, olive or black.

Fabric & Care
Silk Crepe De Chine (100% Silk)
Mela Purdie's mid-weight Silk Crepe De Chine has a beautifully soft, washed finish with the fluid drape you'd expect from pure silk. Light enough for spring yet substantial enough to fall beautifully on the body, it gives the relaxed Villa silhouette a luxurious finish without feeling overly formal.
Dry clean recommended.
