DESCRIPTION
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
FABRIC & CARE
100% European linen, garment-washed. Cold wash, line dry, warm iron — it softens from the first wear and settles by the third. Repairs are free, for life.
SHIPPING & RETURNS
Ships within 48 hours, duties included. 30-day returns, free within the EU. Returned pieces re-enter the collection through Le Retour — never landfill.

FRESH FROM THE LOOMAFTER TEN WASHESLA PROVENANCE —
The story of one dress.
-
THE CLOTH
European linen, woven at 210 grams in a fourth-generation Normandy mill — heavy enough to hold the scallop, light enough for July.
-
THE HANDS
Cut and finished in Porto by the same eight hands since 2019. Three hours and forty-one minutes of work go into every piece.
-
THE NUMBER
Two hundred are cut, no more. Each is numbered by hand on the inside seam — 139 are already spoken for. Yours is waiting for its ink.
-
THE PROMISE
Repairs are free, for life. And when you are done, it comes home through Le Retour — credit for you, a second life for the dress.
“We cut two hundred. We will not cut more.”
COMPLETE THE LOOK —
Worn together on page 14 of the lookbook.
The scallop strap asks for quiet company — shirred cotton, a frill collar, nothing louder.
