Italian Virgin Wool

Our 100% virgin Italian wool is nothing short of a dream—part of its production involves being boiled, giving it a noticeably felted appearance. Our Merino wool, both the French Merino wool mix (20% Merino wool, 80% acrylic) and the 100% Italian extra fine Merino wool, are of fine fibers resulting in soft, lighter, and more flexible garments.

Care: Gentle care required—dry clean only. Do not bleach. Do not tumble dry. Dry flat when needed. Iron on low heat.

Stretch: None.

Italian Virgin Wool
European Wool Blend

Stretch: Mid stretch.

Great quality Flattering Dress

"I love the fabric ! The dress is just perfect and fits perfectly. Will order more colors"

Michelle D. (5/5)

Formal wedding guest dress

"Such an unusual and elegant style!"

Anita L. (5/5)

Quality and fit are excellent!

"The quality is good, mid weight material and solid construction. I wore it cooler temps- 55degrees with a coat and high heeled ankle boots and was comfortable. It is forgiving with minor mid section bulge and was able to wear shape without it showing. I put the sleeve on the wrong arm the first time I tried it on, but figured I out quickly that It goes on the opposite side of the zipper. I’m 5’3” 126 lbs, 37-27-36 and the medium fit snug but looks great and is very comfortable."

Mel (5/5)

Great!!!

"I LOVE my red dress❤️"

Ayanna N. (5/5)

"Stunning dress, could not love it more."

Maria (5/5)

"Absolutely brilliant design!!! Fits perfect!!! Stunning on!!!! Love this company… I have bought almost a dozen items!! Keep it coming!!"

Heather (5/5)

Stunning, elegant, classy, yet modern design.

"10 out of 10. I bought this beauty in all 3 colors. It has some stretch to it, but not enough to be too forgiving. It can make you feel like you should’ve taken that yoga class you’ve been meaning to, just to get into it. But, once you figure it out, easy-peazy (zipper on the side too). YOU WILL BE THE TALK OF THE TOWN. In all the best ways, of course. I contemplated getting a medium after reading the reviews, but went with my instincts and ordered my usual, small. I figured I’d just exchange them if it didn’t work. I am: Height: 5’4” Weight: 125lbs Bust: 34 DDD (this was a tight fit, but the girls were happily snuggled) Waste: 28” Hip: 35”"

MK (5/5)

"For tall people"
