{"product_id":"the-colette-dress-1","title":"The Colette Dress","description":"\u003cp\u003eGold blooms the size of your palm, opening across deep indigo, white vines\u003cbr\u003ecurling between them, and a green-and-cream border running the hem like the edge\u003cbr\u003eof a hand-drawn cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is batik language — the old coastal Javanese arrangement of indigo ground,\u003cbr\u003ebotanicals, geometric borders. Centuries of it. Which is what keeps a print this\u003cbr\u003eloud from being merely loud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is loud, and it isn't for everyone. What earns it is the framing:\u003cbr\u003ebrown traced along every strap and seam, a decorative band closing the bodice, a\u003cbr\u003eborder finishing the hem — nothing scattered, everything placed. And underneath\u003cbr\u003eall that artwork is real tailoring, not a smock. Close through the bodice, close\u003cbr\u003ethrough the ribs, then a gored skirt that opens out and swings when you move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMustard and olive on indigo is also, as it happens, exactly where summer has\u003cbr\u003elanded — the seventies came back this year in earth tones rather than disco.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd you can wear a proper bra with this one. The straps are wide and set wide,\u003cbr\u003eright where a balcony bra's straps sit, so it tucks underneath and disappears —\u003cbr\u003ereal support, nothing adhesive. The back scoops, so if your band sits high a\u003cbr\u003elow-back converter sorts it in seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlat tan sandals, or a heel if you'd like the leg longer. Gold at the ear, and\u003cbr\u003enothing else. It's doing plenty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLinen · tie-bow shoulder straps · wide scoop neckline · contrast bodice panel with decorative border band · brown edging at the straps, neckline and band · fitted through the bodice and midriff · full gored midi skirt · engineered batik-style placement print with a border at the hem · close through the bodice, full and swinging through the skirt · deep indigo ground, densely printed — reads fully opaque · size to your bust; the bodice is fitted and seamed, so size up if you're between · model is 5'7\" and wears a size M · in Marigold Indigo · machine wash cold, gentle cycle, hang to dry, warm iron while damp\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Helena Bloom","offers":[{"title":"XS","offer_id":54340133880021,"sku":null,"price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"S","offer_id":54340118184149,"sku":"0046bb691798e8cb95fefb1938853e99","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":54340118216917,"sku":"305feeaa1899a0a2c1ade61a640f31b1","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":54340118249685,"sku":"2dc061e28323b25af3bce4459199c8e4","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":54340118282453,"sku":"48e4b8bf396025eef22738e0e03da15c","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL","offer_id":54340118315221,"sku":"d2b16c3858e07aec9ab7f53f55b7bcd6","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/3691\/5925\/files\/ChatGPTImageJul26_2026_06_58_40AM_1.png?v=1785063558","url":"https:\/\/helenabloom.com\/products\/the-colette-dress-1","provider":"Helena Bloom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
