Laurel Knit Dress

This midi dress is rendered in a midweight terry knit that hugs the frame without clinging, offering a tactile, organic hand despite its synthetic composition. The column silhouette is punctuated by a deep, keyhole-style cutout at the bodice, anchored by three oversized wooden beads that lean into a coastal, artisanal aesthetic. It is a calculated study in tension, balancing the structured, sporty nature of the terry cloth with the soft, bohemian detail of the hardware.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is composed of a polyester and acrylic blend, both of which are petroleum-derived synthetic polymers that offer poor breathability and can trap heat against the skin. These fibers are prone to microplastic shedding and represent a high chemical burden in terms of raw material processing and potential skin irritation.
