The neckline and armholes are neatly finished with facing. Wear Avina on its own with heels for a fancy evening look, or as a pinafore dress over a turtleneck or blouse when it gets colder. You decide the length and the vibe.

Fabric recommendations:
Avina looks best in structured fabrics that hold their shape. Think corduroy, denim or a wool(-look) fabric such as double crepe for a warm, wintery version with character. For summer, the dresss looks fresh and airy in linen, chambray or a light twill. Avoid fabrics that are too thin or stretchythis design needs a bit of structure to shine.
