The dress that tells a story before you say a word. The Bella is a full-length maxi dress made from organic kora cotton — unbleached, natural, and dyed in Rajasthan. The bodice and skirt are hand block printed with bold abstract florals in purple, pink, olive, and teal. The hemline tier is a contrasting olive green batik — a completely different technique, pattern, and mood that somehow makes the whole thing work. The neckline is finished with small wooden beads. There are pockets. Adjustable straps sit delicately at the shoulders. The drawstring back means it fits across a real range of bodies without alteration. Wear it to a festival in the sun with flat sandals. Throw a blazer over it and boots for a Melbourne winter evening and it reads entirely differently. This is the dress that earns compliments from people who know what they're looking at. Every Bella is slightly different. The variation in the print registration and colour depth is not a flaw — it is exactly what makes it yours.
