Elodie Dress

This dress leans into the liquid drape of modal jersey, utilizing a high-neck, cap-sleeve bodice that anchors the body before dropping into a ruched, cinched waist. The skirt falls with an aggressive kerchief hem, creating an irregular silhouette that moves sharply against the legs. It is an exercise in tension—soft, fluid fabric meeting a geometric, architectural cut.

Safety Rating: Poor

Analysis: Modal is a chemically processed semi-synthetic fiber that requires significant solvent use during production, often involving carbon disulfide. While the fabric is soft and comfortable, the 5% spandex content introduces a petroleum-based plastic component that limits breathability and contributes to microplastic shedding.
