This cotton mini dress showcases a custom print inspired by Degas' raw, intimate sketches. This piece captures the artist's studies of ballerinas— their bodies in exhaustion, muscles strained, yet maintaining impeccable grace. Long elastic puff sleeves and a structured boned bodice frame your figure, while the double-tiered skirt, with clever drawstrings, creates an elegant hourglass. The wide faux horsehair hem gives each layer a curly, waving shape that moves beautifully with every leap, while a hidden petticoat creates a delightful reveal beneath—perfect for twirling across the floor in your own private dance studio.
