Y/Project Striped cotton and tulle midi dress

This dress embodies the deconstructivist aesthetic of Y/Project, transforming a familiar silhouette into a conceptual fashion statement. The piece layers a classic polo dress with a sheer overlay, creating a visual dialogue between structure and fluidity that redefines modern elegance for an avant-garde wardrobe.

The art of the detail

Crafted from breathable cotton, this black midi dress features a vertical striped pattern that elongates the frame. Its design is structured with a traditional polo collar and a discreet buttoned placket at the front. The construction is elevated by long sleeves and a hem overlay made from sheer tulle, introducing a contrasting texture and an element of surprise. This material juxtaposition creates a sophisticated layered effect, playing with transparency while maintaining a clean structure and a charismatic presence, true to the Parisian brand’s innovative approach to design.

How to wear

Style this midi dress with pointed-toe ankle boots and an architectural clutch for a gallery opening or a creative industry event. The layered design also allows it to transition gracefully into more formal settings. For an evening reception or an elegant dinner, simply pair it with minimalist heeled sandals and delicate jewelry to complete the ensemble. Its versatility makes it a clever and thoughtful addition to the contemporary wardrobe, offering multiple styling possibilities that transcend seasons and fleeting trends, available at Mytheresa. This adaptability ensures it becomes a go-to piece for various occasions.
