Christopher Esber's design philosophy centers on a confident, subtle sensuality, perfectly captured by the Fran midi dress. Its defining one-shoulder silhouette is rendered in a finely ribbed knit, creating a modern classic that moves seamlessly from day to evening with understated polish.

The art of the detail

This design explores form and texture with its distinctive one-shoulder neckline and body-skimming column silhouette. The dress is crafted from a finely ribbed knit fabric, chosen for its comfortable structure and elegant drape, which gracefully follows the body’s lines. Strategic cutouts at the side and back create an intriguing focal point, disrupting the otherwise clean profile. The rich green tone provides a versatile and sophisticated canvas, allowing the architectural details of the garment to stand out. This midi-length piece finishes with a subtle side slit for ease of movement.

How to wear

Style the Fran midi dress with barely-there heeled sandals and a sculptural clutch for an evening at a gallery opening. For a sophisticated cocktail hour ensemble, complement the dress's clean lines with minimalist gold hoop earrings and a delicate chain bracelet. The asymmetrical design and cutouts require little embellishment, making it a powerful statement piece on its own. Whether attending a modern wedding reception or an exclusive dinner reservation, this dress offers a refined and contemporary approach to event dressing, ensuring a memorable and polished presence.
