Mela Purdie’s Zip Fondant Dress is a testament to the Sydney-based label’s commitment to fine materials and effortless trans-seasonal dressing solutions.
A striking study in sartorial tension: a stretch matte jersey upper is spliced with a microprene cotton skirt–perfect contrasts that deliver a minimalist appeal.
It features a tall neckline that opens to a short zip placket, and full-length sleeves, then falls into a gathered tiered skirt that adds volume and drama to the silhouette.
Elevate the oversized proportions with leather boots.
