The Esplanade Dress is a handwoven striped linen dress designed in New Orleans and handmade in India by skilled artisans using hand dyeing traditions that give each piece its own quiet character. The fabric construction is precise: the weft is 100% woven linen, while the warp blends 30% recycled woven cotton with 70% virgin woven cotton, producing a structured, breathable textile with real longevity. The silhouette is clean and considered, with an empire waist, zipper back, and side pockets that make it as practical as it is polished.

  • Weft in 100% woven linen and warp in a recycled and virgin cotton blend; no synthetic fibers, and no stretch, so sizing true to fit matters here.
  • Hand dyed by artisans in India, meaning each dress carries slight shade variation of 5 to 10%, a mark of genuine handcraft rather than machine uniformity.
  • Empire waist and side pockets offer a flattering, functional silhouette; the model is 5'3" and wears a size S for reference.

If you value clothing made with ingredient transparency and artisan craft, the Esplanade Dress is a considered addition to a wardrobe built to last. Size true to fit and expect the fabric to soften beautifully with wear.

Nicholas L. ★★★★★

The handwoven stripes have such a beautiful organic feel, and I love knowing it was made by skilled artisans. The fit is comfortably relaxed, perfect for warm days when I still want to look put together.

Sofia A. ★★★★★

I was worried linen might be scratchy, but the fabric is soft against my skin and the handwoven stripes give it such an interesting texture. It's perfect for a summer wedding or a nice dinner out.

Brian A. ★★★★★

The hand-dyeing really makes each dress feel one-of-a-kind — the subtle striping is even prettier in person. I wore it to an outdoor brunch and got so many compliments on the texture.
