“She wondered which wounds went deeper: the jagged wounds of reality or the profound invisible bruises of the imagination?”
― Vita Sackville-West
Inspired by our muse Vita Sackville-West this style has become a constant part of the by.agy brand; it's a design that creates an androgynous silhouette whilst still remaining slightly feminine.
Sleeveless smock style. The entire dress features a wobbly, check stitch pattern, and the bodice and front skirt have embroidered motifs inspired by its namesake. The left shoulder has two long thread ties and so can either be worn fastened or left loose. The full gathered skirt has a soft, elasticated hem that creates a gentle tulip silhouette.
This dress is made from 100% silk organza
