The iconic sixties dress

The Comète dress captures the spirit of freedom from the 1960s fashion: revolutionary in its simplicity. A recall to the mini dress, with a classic crew neckline, it’s knitted 1x1 rib for structure and comfort, offering both ease and elegance. Style it with a cropped cardigan like BATIGNOLES or PIGALLE, and finish the look with casual sneakers or wedge sandals.

Knitted in Egyptian mako cotton ELS: this Giza cotton is the very essence of classic cotton, in an ultra-soft version, which can be worn in all seasons, on its own, because it doesn't need anything else to standout. The mako variety, from Upper Egypt, is a controlled appellation whose thread is extremely fine and silky. 

Each colour of this knit is dyed by skeins directly onto the yarn before spinning, using vegetable pigments and natural agents for fixation, creating depth and uniqueness to the colours.
