Rumored's Toulouse Midi Dress in cotton gingham is the quiet heir to seasons of garden parties and summer dinners — a midi rendered in crisp, graphic black-and-white gingham that carries the polish of inherited pieces and the ease of everyday wear. Materials: Cotton Gingham Fit: Midi length, true to size Care: Machine wash cool, lay flat to dry Details Fully lined upper bodice Square neckline Open back Adjustable contrast ties Fitted bodice Invisible zipper Picot lace trim at neckline Cut in pure cotton, this is the dress you'll reach for repeatedly, finding new ways to style it with each wearing. The cotton gingham composition — where color is woven into the fiber — creates lasting pigment and dimensional pattern that only becomes more beautiful with time. This fabric holds its structure and becomes softer and more supple with washing, developing that beloved broken-in feel while resisting the wrinkles and slouch that compromise lesser pieces. The midi length offers coverage and movement simultaneously, designed to drape rather than cling, moving with a quiet confidence. The structured gingham holds its shape through wear and laundering, demonstrating the kind of durability that separates cherished pieces from seasonal placeholders. True to size and designed for natural layering, it accommodates delicate cardigans or lightweight knits underneath. At $178, the investment pays dividends through years of reliable wear.
