Founded in 2016 by designer Marina Cortbawi, Brooklyn-based Merlette thoughtfully crafts its garments from all natural, high-quality materials (cotton, wools and silks) with bespoke finishes — perfect for building a timeless wardrobe.
The 'Berenson' dress pays homage to its muse, Marisa Berenson, and her iconic wedding gown. Crafted from lightweight, breathable 100% Pima cotton lawn, this ankle-length silhouette features intricate floral eyelet embroidery adorning the short sleeves. Delicately scalloped sleeve edges lend a romantic touch, while the elastic neckline allows for an on-or-off-the-shoulder styling option. A tiered, body-lined construction creates beautiful movement, enhanced by an optional self-belt for a waisted look or a free-flowing feel.
