Toteme Pleated maxi dress

Embodying Toteme's vision of a modern uniform, this maxi dress offers a lesson in refined minimalism. Its signature appeal lies in the delicate all-over pleating, creating a fluid texture that moves with you. This piece is a foundational element for a curated and versatile wardrobe.

The art of the detail

This piece is defined by its clean, elongated silhouette, crafted from a lightweight fabric that drapes effortlessly over the frame. The design features a classic crewneck and long sleeves, creating a balanced and modest profile. Rendered in a timeless black hue, its most notable characteristic is the intricate, vertically-oriented pleating that lends both texture and graceful movement to the column-like shape. The construction ensures a comfortable yet put-together feel, making it an ideal choice for a variety of settings where understated elegance is key.

How to wear

Style this maxi dress with minimalist leather slides and a compact shoulder bag for an elevated approach to daytime engagements. The fluid design transitions seamlessly into the evening when paired with heeled sandals and a statement clutch. For cooler weather, layer it under a tailored wool coat, allowing the pleated texture to offer a subtle point of contrast. Its inherent versatility makes it a perfect companion for gallery visits, refined dinners, or as a sophisticated travel piece. This dress offers a polished foundation for endless styling possibilities throughout the seasons.
