The Daphné Dress is a refined, considered silhouette with a high neckline that balances beautifully with an open back, which fastens with delicate neck ties at the back.

A deep waistband defines the waist before falling into an A-line skirt, softly cut to create movement and lightness. A subtle slit adds ease and fluidity, allowing the dress to move naturally with the body while maintaining a clean, confident shape. The bodice is fully lined.

Designed as a progression of Poésie’s signature silhouettes, Daphné reflects a quiet evolution in proportion and detail, resulting in a piece that feels both timeless and modern.

The Daphné Dress was featured in British Vogue, January 2025.

Isobel wears a size 8; she is 173cm/5ft8in tall. The length of the sample dress is 152cm (shoulder-hem).

WASHCARE

Although most poésie pieces are machine washable, hand-washing is recommended. Handwashing increases the longevity of textiles by preserving fibres and detailing in a way that washing machines cannot.
