Flekke Dress

Product Details

Our Flekke Dress is an oversized, V-neck design featuring a wrap front, shawl collar with notched lapel and discrete button for a neat fit. Crafted from Cupro and Lyocell in a subtle check jacquard fabric, a centre front tuck detail, cuffed sleeves and side pockets provide this free-flowing dress with functionality and style. This mid-length dress is best worn with statement earrings and sneakers for a relaxed, resort look. Please note, the white colourway of the Flekke Dress is semi-sheer.

Material

60% Cupro & 40% Lyocell

This fabric features a subtle check effect, and a soft, smooth surface created by the blend of cupro and lyocell. Both these fibres create a breathable finish and durability making finished garment perfect for wearing again and again. Made from the cellulose extracted from cotton linter, a waste product of cotton production, Bemberg™ Cupro is manufactured in Japan by Asahi Kasei, using a low impact, zero waste emissions production system.

Lyocell is made from cellulose fibre from wood pulp. Lyocell production does not use toxic chemicals, and more than 99% of the solvents are recovered and used again. Lyocell production uses significantly less water than for cotton, making it a relatively low impact option.

The fibres in this blend are naturally renewable and biodegradable.
