Six Reasons I Chose the Arabella Dress for You
For the woman who wants to feel put together and completely at ease.
The Arabella dress, the piece I want to tell you about.
Dear friend,
Getting dressed should not feel like a negotiation. Yet so many of us know the feeling: the dresses that look pretty seem stiff or fussy, and the ones that feel comfortable make us want to disappear into the background.
I believe you can have both. A dress can be graceful and easy at the same time, and it should never make you think twice about reaching for a hug or sitting down at the table.
One dress that gets this balance right is Arabella. In this letter I will tell you the six things I look for when I choose a dress, and how Arabella answers each one.
The Problem With Most Dresses
If you have ever stood in front of your closet and felt a little discouraged, you are not alone.
- It looks lovely on the hanger and then pulls, clings, or hangs like a sack once it is on.
- You cover up more than you want to, especially your arms and middle.
- The pretty ones feel too fussy for an ordinary day, or too young for you.
- Special days make you nervous, and nothing in your closet feels right for them.
So here are the six things I look for. They are simple, and I think they matter.
It skims, it never clings
Arabella has a gentle A-line shape that falls softly away from the body. You can sit, hug, eat, and move through your day without feeling squeezed.
Sleeves with room to move
The relaxed lantern sleeves give you coverage where many of us want it, with plenty of space to reach, carry, and hold the people you love.
Flower buttons you notice every time
Small, delicate flower buttons run down the front. It is the kind of detail you only see up close, and it makes the dress feel special without trying too hard.
Floral cuffs that do the dressing up
The sculpted floral cuffs are what turn a comfortable dress into one that looks dressed up. You do not need much else. A necklace and you are ready.
A midi length that stays with you
A classic midi length never chases trends, so it stays lovely season after season. Wear it with heels for a celebration, or with flats for a nice lunch.
A fabric that feels natural
Arabella is made from a cotton-linen blend with ramie. It is soft and breathable with a natural feel and a gentle drape. To care for it, wash cold on a gentle cycle, hang to dry, and use a cool iron if needed.
Choose the Color That Is Right for You
From classic black to soft sage and pink, there is a shade for every wardrobe and every occasion. Pick the one that feels most like you.
