Romea | Cotton Maxi Shirt Dress with Drawstring Waist and Side Slits

Some maxi dresses fall flat. The Romea holds the line. Soft cotton falling from a clean shirt collar, a half-button henley placket opening into a V-neckline, long sleeves built to roll, a subtle drawstring cinching the waist, side slits running up the hem, a relaxed silhouette flowing all the way to the ankle — this is the dress for the autumn weekend in the city, the long lunch with old friends, the kind of in-between weather day you want one piece to do everything without trying.

"The Romea is the dress I wear when I want to feel pulled together and completely at ease in the same outfit. The drawstring at the waist is what makes it — cinch it for shape, leave it loose for comfort, your call. Olive is earthy and grown-up. Mauve is romantic and rich. Cream is timeless. White sneakers, leather sandals, low boots. Done." — Sarah Mitchell, Founder of Valora New York

✔ Drawstring Waist Detail — a soft tunnel drawstring at the natural waist, cinch it to define the silhouette, leave it loose for an easy column line, your choice every wear.

✔ Shirt Collar with Half-Button Placket — a clean turn-down collar opening into a row of functional buttons running halfway down the chest, slips on over the head, opens just enough to feel relaxed.

✔ Long Sleeves with Roll-Up Cuff — full-length sleeves built to roll once or twice and stay put, work for cool mornings and warm afternoons in the same outfit.

✔ Side Slits at the Hem — clean vertical slits running up both sides of the hem, lengthen the silhouette and let you walk freely without restriction.

✔ Maxi Ankle Length — falls all the way to the ankle, walks beautifully in flat sandals, white sneakers, or low ankle boots.

✔ Relaxed Loose Silhouette — flows easy from the shoulder to the hem, skims every shape without clinging, flatters every body.

✔ Soft Breathable Cotton — lightly textured, naturally falling, drapes through long days, and softens with every wash.

✔ Three Wear-Everywhere Colorways — Olive Green for earthy, grown-up afternoons. Mauve for romantic, rich evenings. Cream for timeless everyday ease.
