Allegra Sweetheart Neckline Ribbed Midi Dress

Catherine Holstein founded KHAITE in 2016 with a core focus in mind: to embody what she calls the "feminine unique". In doing so, the designer plays with elements such as fluidity and structure to create stand-out pieces that appear as strong but softly accentuated. The Allegra dress from her latest collection exemplifies her approach; woven in stretchy, form-fitting fabric, its figure-hugging silhouette is further enhanced with a sweetheart neckline and all-over ribbing.

• 83% viscose, 17% polyester

Pronounced ‘Kate’, New York-based Khaite’s ready-to-wear collections are characterised by the kind of contradictions that epitomise the city it hails from. Everyday pieces are realised in exquisite materials; classic luxury elements reworked with a modern twist. Running through them all is a simplicity and a sensuality that makes them unquestionably covetable.
