PREORDER NOW! - Book of Love Reversible Bohéme Maxi Slip Dress

 If you could fill a book with all the things worth believing in, what would you put inside? Book of Love is our answer — a joyful, romantic collage pieced together from centuries of beautiful things, and filled with words that get to the very heart of what matters in this wild world: faith, hope, and love. Designed to create a layered, almost trompe l’oeil effect when worn, this whimsical print features artwork we’ve collected and saved through the years — hand-painted, fringed banners from the 1800s, a tangled garden illustration from a Parisian perfume advertisement, charming scraps of 18th-century flowered fabric, antique swallows, and a romantic doorway draped in flowing textiles from an 1885 French book of drapery and design. We even borrowed a beautiful figure from Botticelli’s masterpiece, The Birth of Venus. (Who better to carry the banner of Hope in our Book of Love?) The trim repeats the words Faith, Hope, Love in antique hand-painted lettering, while the banner on the sleeve carries the closing line in our book: But the greatest of these is love. Made for those who believe there are always wonderful stories waiting to be told, Book of Love is a reminder that beauty is everywhere, and the chapters are yours to write ;) Please note: The nature of our viscose means it’s slightly sheer, so we recommend wearing a full or half-slip with this style. 100% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as wood and bamboo). Machine wash gentle or handwash, hang to dry. Measurements for S/M: 136cm long, 52cm wide underarm to underarm. L/XL: 142cm long, 57cm wide underarm to underarm.
