"This linen dress features a band of hand-embroidery across the bottom. Sardinian knotted embroidery, known as Punt 'e Nù, comes from the town of Teulada in southern Sardinia. Thousands of tiny little knots form the textural embroidery design."

clean lines of traditional stitching complement the sculptural lines of the tailored dress. Very nice.

I like the use of linen in MODERN garments...it's wearable and very pretty. Not just for costumes!

The beautiful embroidered border enhances a balanced garment design overall. Blue is my favorite color.

Love the embroidery! What weight linen did you use? And is the dress lined? The simple design really compliments the embroidery well.

Jean, the linen is a medium to heavy weight linen. The dress is lined with cotton voile. It is lovely to wear!
