Details

Refined, feminine, and effortlessly sophisticated, the Helsa Draped Neck Dress in Crimson Palms is designed to make a statement with understated elegance. Crafted from a luxurious cupro-viscose stretch blend, this long sleeve dress offers a smooth, fluid drape that contours the body while maintaining exceptional comfort. The softly draped neckline creates a flattering focal point, complemented by a tailored silhouette that enhances natural curves.

Featuring the exclusive crimson palms print, inspired by tropical foliage and artisanal motifs, the Helsa Dress brings depth and richness to a timeless shape. Full-length sleeves balance the knee-length hem, making it ideal for both daytime events and evening occasions. Style with heels and minimal jewellery for polished impact.

Perfect for cocktail events, elevated dinners, or special occasions, this dress blends modern tailoring with resort-inspired artistry.

To keep your clothing looking fresh and lasting longer, always follow the garment care instructions.

The below is a general guide, not garment specific:

Washing: Machine wash cold - always with like colours to prevent fading and bleeding.

Detergent: Use mild detergent; avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.

Drying: Tumble dry on low or air dry to reduce shrinkage and maintain fabric integrity.

Ironing: If needed, use a low-heat iron or steam to remove wrinkles. Avoid high heat on delicate fabrics.

Special Fabrics: For wool, silk, or embellished items, hand wash or dry clean as recommended.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Fold knits to prevent stretching; hang woven fabrics to maintain shape.
