The Occasion Trio

$429 USD$469 USD

Saves $40 against buying the pieces separately

Daytime, evening and everyday — the three dresses one warm-season trip actually needs.

In moving air

Moderate — the hem moves in air but returns quickly. A common choice for part-outdoor events.

This is a description of how the cloth behaves, not a promise about the weather.

Fabric and care in full

Why it is made this way

The largest thing we sell, and the clearest statement of what this shop is for. A cap-sleeve fit-and-flare for a daytime ceremony, the ankle column gown for the one evening that matters, and the knit midi for every other day.

It ships with a printed pairing card: which layer goes with which dress, what each one does in moving air, and where each hem lands once you sit down. Paper, in the box, nothing to renew.

Where we would wear it
