Product Details

The Mezzanotte Hungarian Mini Dress brings the beauty of Shibori dyeing to a relaxed babydoll silhouette. This traditional Japanese resist-dyeing technique, named after shiboru, meaning to wring or squeeze, uses folded and tightly bound cloth to create organic, one-of-a-kind patterns. Chocolate-brown and blue diamond motifs are complemented by blue piping, a scalloped hem and an adjustable gathered neckline.

Soft and flowing, with elasticated sleeves, it's a playful choice for gallery visits, long lunches and evenings away. Subtle pinholes may remain where the fabric was bound during dyeing, a natural trace of this artisanal process.

  • Silhouette: babydoll mini dress, flowy and relaxed style
  • Detailing: contrast blue piping on seams, elastic sleeve opening, scalloped dress hem, scoop neckline with adjustable cord
  • Lining: no lining
  • Craft Note: Shibori - A Japanese resist technique. The name comes from shiboru, to wring or squeeze. Cloth is folded, bound, clamped or stitched before it meets the dye, and wherever it’s held tightly the colour can’t reach. These bindings resist the dye, when removed, they reveal intricate, organic & unique patterns of this historical artisanal craft. Small pinholes can be left behind as a sign of a true Shibori dyed piece.
