A little more info …
Exclusively, we have had our beloved ruffle dress sewn in this fantastic piece of fabric. The result is a truly beautiful ruffle dress in red/orange stripes, which you can swing into the summer with. The dress has pockets on the sides and short sleeves. It comes with a tie belt, which can be used at the waist or even in the hair for a complete look. The dress has the most beautiful drape and moves nicely around the body. The cut is for good reason one of our most popular and surprises customers time and time again, who otherwise did not think they were into this type of dress. Try it and see if you also fall in love with the luxurious bohemian atmosphere of the ruffle dress.
The fabric
The ruffle dress is made in a wonderful linen quality, woven in beautiful stripes. The color and stripe combination is developed and designed specifically for McVERDI. When our Italian textile designer develops for us, we often receive color samples that are woven together in a large piece of fabric. Usually, the intention is for us to choose one or two different stripes to proceed with from this “blanket”. But often we fall in love with the complete expression. In the combination of many colors and stripes, creating a color story that ties the collection together. Originally, this piece of fabric was just examples of different stripes that could be made from the yarn we had desired. But as often before, we fell in love with the entire color sample and proceeded with two multi-striped versions – a green/blue story and a pink/red/orange story. Additionally, the fabric is woven from colored yarns, so each stripe is mottled and the fabric has a beautiful play of colors. The fabric is 100% linen and has the well-known and special linen structure. Linen has a luxurious feel, it drapes beautifully, and it is lovely to wear when it is warm. Linen wrinkles – and you have to get used to it or learn to love it. It is part of linen’s natural “behavior” and expression. You can certainly iron linen and get a sharp look, but we actually recommend letting linen be linen and instead accepting the wrinkles and letting the fabric work. Wash your ruffle dress gently in the washing machine and let it dry on a hanger. The fabric is produced in Italy, while the ruffle dress is sewn in Bulgaria.
