Puff Sleeve Column Maxi Dress

$308

This ivory crepe gown centers on a sharp, architectural column silhouette contrasted by dramatic, detachable puff sleeves. The wrap-front construction creates a clean vertical line that grounds the volume of the shoulders, nodding to a modern, minimalist take on traditional bridal geometry. It is a study in proportion, trading fussy embellishment for structural precision. Safety Rating: Poor Analysis: The garment is constructed from 100% viscose, a chemically processed semi-synthetic that requires intensive solvent use during production. The inclusion of a 100% polyester lining further reduces breathability and increases the presence of petroleum-based synthetics against the skin.
