The Belle is the closest to the body, with princess seams so it contours without pulling.
Silk-feel fabric, still machine washable. The fabric is our Dynamic Drape blend: softer hand, same wash-and-wear rules. Best if you want a sharper, dressier line than Dawn. This is closer to the body, not a stretchier Dawn.
Named for a mentor. Built so a working woman can skip the dry cleaner for good.
Why $150. A year of dry cleaning a white shirt is $8–$15 a wear. The Belle is $150 once. Wash cold. Hang. Wear.
