Liberty Cotton-Lawn Maxi Shirt Dress

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.

A new interpretation of the classic shirt dress, the Liberty features bands of decorative pintucks across the front and back that articulate its A-line silhouette. It has a concealed placket fastened with sustainable Corozo nut buttons, as well as buttoned cuffs, and side pockets. A removable sash at the waist and removable slip add versatility, making the Liberty a beautiful choice for daywear or a relaxed evening occasion. Crafted in sustainable 100% Pima cotton lawn that has a soft handfeel and is slightly sheer.
