DALLA PALMA EMBROIDERED Empire Maxi Dress

AUR OCEÀ’s DALLA PALMA EMBROIDERED Empire Maxi Dress captures the poetic beauty of island life with effortless elegance. Cut on the bias for a soft, fluid silhouette, it’s made from breathable cotton that’s light enough for tropical climes yet structured enough to hold its sweeping shape. The artisanal embroidery, rendered in rich terracotta and ochre tones, depicts palms and urns in a pattern that feels both heritage and haute. Wide straps and a square neckline frame the décolletage, while a fitted bodice flows into a full skirt that skims the ankle. Wear it barefoot along the coast or dress it up with sculptural sandals and gold jewellery.
