Celestine | Belted Lapel Maxi Dress

There are dresses that belong to one kind of day. The Celestine belongs to all of them. A classic lapel collar, a defined belted waist, and a floor-length silhouette that carries the same quiet authority from a spring morning to an autumn evening — without ever needing to be reconsidered.

The Celestine is a long-sleeve maxi dress in a soft fabric blend with a single-breasted button front, an adjustable waist belt, and a V-neckline framed by a tailored lapel collar. The belt does what a good belt should — defines the waist without cinching, creates a feminine silhouette without relying on the fabric to do the work. Pair it with heels and a clutch for a formal occasion, ankle boots for a polished everyday look.

"The lapel collar is what makes the Celestine feel different from every other maxi dress. It gives the whole silhouette a structure and intention that most long dresses don't have. I wear mine with ankle boots and consider myself completely dressed." — Sarah Mitchell, Founder of Valora New York
