Fashion Belle Vie Adélaïde, the Dress

Long puffed sleeves dress

There was a time when girls would have one nice dress in their closet, the one they would wear for special occasions and take great care of.

Adelaïde is a nod to that heirloom piece. We designed it with refined details in mind, such as the vintage lace in the neckline, the hem and the wrists, the pintucks, the festoon finish, the mother-of-pearl vintage buttons, the high quality French fabrics.

Giving a new birth to those precious treasures is our way to celebrate the « savoir-faire» and traditions.

Each garment is a unique mix of old & new, truly special piece to cherish and pass on!
