Hypatia women's dress with delphinium hand smocking

Named after the first known woman to be a world leader in mathematics and astronomy in Ancient Alexandria, comes this timeless bishop smock gown. The classical tone is set by the midi length a-line silhouette and acres of sweeping cotton voile, crowned by a blaze of pale blue and white four step trellis stitch zigzags.

The gown is finished with a front button placket, gathered blouson sleeves edged with a cross stitch hand finish, soft frill neckline and a detachable sash. Designed for day or nightwear, tie the sash and open the buttons for effortless beach elegance or wear loose for a summer nightwear look that is as beautiful as it is comfortable.

Hand smocked. Front button placket. Detachable sash.
