Melissa Odabash Jess broderie anglaise cotton minidress

Melissa Odabash is synonymous with refined resort wear, and the Jess minidress perfectly captures this aesthetic. Rendered in lightweight cotton with intricate embroidery, its tiered skirt and wrap-style bodice make it a natural choice for sun-drenched destinations and warm-weather events.

The art of the detail

This minidress is crafted from pure cotton, presented in a deep blue tone. The lightweight fabric is detailed with intricate broderie anglaise, forming elegant patterns across the wrap-effect bodice and tiered skirt. A smocked waist defines the figure, leading to a playful hemline trimmed with subtle pom-poms. Flutter sleeves add a soft sense of movement, while a self-tie detail at the nape of the neck provides a considered finishing touch to the design.

How to wear

Style this minidress with minimalist leather sandals and a woven tote for an afternoon exploring coastal towns. As evening approaches, transition the look by pairing it with embellished slides and delicate gold jewelry for alfresco dinners or resort lounging. The breathable cotton and versatile silhouette make it an essential piece for creating polished ensembles during a warm-weather getaway, moving seamlessly from a daytime engagement to a relaxed evening affair.
