Dahlia Black Crochet Maxi Dress
There’s a quiet confidence to our Dahlia Black Crochet Maxi Dress, the kind that turns heads without demanding attention. Handcrafted in deep black crochet, it blends openwork stitching with intricate floral panels that sculpt and flatter the body. The high neckline and long sleeves bring structure and drama, while the sheer finish adds a soft, romantic edge. Every stitch moves with you, creating shape and texture that feels both bold and timeless.
Style it simply with the cotton slip and boots for day, or layer with a black body, our Rebel Revolver Black Studded Long Boots and gold jewellery for the evening. It’s a piece made for concerts, gatherings and nights that call for quiet impact.
You can picture Anita Pallenberg slipping into it before a late-night party, or Jane Birkin moving through the crowd with that same magnetic ease. The Dahlia carries that dark, magnetic energy that defined the underground icons of the sixties.
Irina our model is 5ft 10" and wears a UK8

The Stage Is Set: Paint It Black
This is your dark romantic chapter, steeped in velvet, gold thread and the heady spirit of late-60s rock aristocracy.
Inspired by the likes of Stevie Nicks, Pattie Boyd, Jane Birkin and Françoise Hardy, each piece carries that intoxicating mix of sensuality and power. Think candlelit clubs, the scent of incense, the hum of an amplifier warming up. Silhouettes move like smoke, with sweeping sleeves, opulent embroidery and fabrics that glimmer softly under the lights.
From black velvet flares and embroidered jackets to lurex gowns and dramatic capes, every detail has been designed to make an entrance. Rich tones of bronze, ochre and antique gold bring warmth to the darkness, while folk motifs and ornate trims nod to our love of craftsmanship.
A collection for those who live for the night, for the music, for the magic.
Turn up the volume and Paint it Black.
