Giselle | Watercolor Maxi Dress

There are gowns that belong to a moment and gowns that create one. The Giselle creates one. Layers of sheer watercolor-printed tulle fall from a crossover V-bodice to the floor in a full sweeping skirt that catches air with every step — violet and lavender, fuchsia and crimson, sunflower and amber, coral and terracotta, deep olive and dusty rose — each colorway a different painting, each one impossible to ignore from across a room. The slim spaghetti straps hold the bodice exactly where it should be, the twisted waist wraps and cinches without a single seam feeling structural, and the full floor-length skirt does what only a truly great gown can do: it moves before you do.

The Giselle is a spaghetti-strap maxi gown in watercolor-print tulle with a deep V-neckline, crossover ruched bodice, twisted waist detail, and a full A-line skirt with floor-length hem and integrated lining. Available in violet, fuchsia-crimson, sunflower, coral-terracotta, and olive botanical. The kind of dress that works for a black-tie wedding, a gala, a formal dinner, and every occasion where the outfit needed to be the first thing anyone remembers about the evening.

"The Giselle is the dress I recommend when someone wants to feel genuinely extraordinary. The tulle is what makes it — it layers and moves the way only real tulle does, and the watercolor print means no two steps look the same in the light. I style mine in the violet with nothing but gold strappy heels and a small gold clutch, because the dress is already doing everything. You just have to show up." — Sarah Mitchell, Founder of Valora New York

✔ Watercolor-print tulle construction — multiple layers of sheer printed tulle create a full, dimensional skirt that catches light and movement differently with every step, reading as genuinely painterly rather than flat or repetitive

✔ Deep V crossover bodice — the neckline opens to a deep V framed by crossed and ruched fabric that defines the chest and waist simultaneously without requiring a structured bra or additional shaping underneath

✔ Twisted ruched waist detail — fabric gathers and twists at the natural waist in a sculptural knot that creates the illusion of a cinched silhouette while remaining completely comfortable through extended evening wear

✔ Slim adjustable spaghetti straps — hold the bodice securely at the shoulder with enough adjustment to fit the torso precisely, keeping the deep V in place through dancing, dining, and a full evening of movement

✔ Full A-line floor-length skirt — the skirt sweeps from waist to floor in a full circle cut that moves with the body rather than against it, with enough volume to feel genuinely formal without weight or restriction

✔ Five watercolor colorways — violet, fuchsia-crimson, sunflower, coral-terracotta, and olive botanical — each a distinct palette that reads as a separate gown entirely, with tone-on-tone depth that prevents any colorway from reading as flat

The gown that makes the room turn before you say a word.
