Going Out Dress

This version of the Frill Dress has been transformed into a tiered party piece, crafted from a stunning cotton poplin tightly woven in two rich colours — chestnut and patina green — creating a copper-like sheen. As you move and the light shifts, the fabric subtly shimmers and changes, reminiscent of dupion silk.

The dress features an added tiered bottom for extra movement and a touch of drama. Wide, short sleeves with upturned cuffs and broader ties complete the look with a confident, modern edge.

Made from rare deadstock fabric designed by Paul Smith, it brings a quiet sense of luxury — a subtle, classy, and understated choice for a special occasion.

If you’re drawn to something bolder, this dress would also look stunning in golden or silver tones, or a striking metallic print — the possibilities are endless. I’d be delighted to help you find a one-of-a-kind fabric that lets you stand out in your own way.
