Apex Bow-Back Striped-Satin Midi Dress

The kerchief-like panel adorning Ssōne's cream Apex midi dress is inspired by the styles worn by suffragettes and protesters, reflective of Caroline Smithson's culturally-informed approach to design. It's crafted in Italy – in a small-scale mill employing local Italians, in line with the label's provenance transparency – from striped satin with voluminous neck ties, puffed dolman sleeves and a partially-concealed rope belt. Capture the label's retro-nostalgic mood by pairing it with heeled boots or flats.
