Riva Shirt Dress

Regular price
£1,290

  • Natural Fibers

Our stunning Riva shirt dress is an effortlessly refined daywear silhouette, crafted from luxurious organic Italian cotton printed with a chic navy blue 1960's rope motif sourced from an exclusive Italian archive. The design was inspired by a poetic image of Grace Kelly in the 1960s, wearing a headscarf and oversized sunglasses as she made her way to the island of Capri.

This investment piece beautifully pairs the timeless 1960's archive rope print with the classic, perfectly tailored style of the shirt-waist dress. It features a revere collar, sleeves that finish just above the elbow, and simple covered buttons. Fully lined in soft viscose, it includes side pockets in the skirt, making it as comfortable as it is elegant.

A coordinating navy suede belt with a gold plated hardware buckle designed by Suzannah, cinches the waist, defining a flattering silhouette and adding a refined finishing touch.

Incredibly versatile, the Riva dress is perfect for city days, special events, dinners, cocktails, and luxury holidays. It can also be styled with elegant millinery for race meets or weddings.

The dress’s name evokes the iconic wooden motorboats that glide between Italy’s islands which are called Riva boats. The boats are classic models from the 1950s and 60s. These sleek, polished vessels are synonymous with the Italian Riviera, from Capri to Amalfi and Venice, capturing the vintage charm and mid-century elegance of coastal Italian life.
