Mes Demoiselles Calm Dress, Beige bias-cut Wakame greenTie and dye is usually a contrast trick. Tone on tone is the harder version, because the pattern has to work without a strong colour holding it together. The Calm Dress runs pink into green at close range and reads as a single luminous beige from across a room. Shiny viscose, midi length, cut to move rather than to hold a shape. Mes Demoiselles is a Paris house that thinks in terms of travel rather than seasons. This is the dress in that argument.
