With its distinctively 1950s look, Mookie is a feminine and timeless design available as both a dress and a top. Its silhouette is subtly structured thanks to an elasticated waist, covered by a draped belt that elegantly accentuates the waist, finished with a bow to tie at the back or to the side.
✨ The details that make all the difference
- 1950s retro style
- Elasticated waist for comfort, concealed by a draped belt
- Decorative bow at the back or on the side
- Two neckline options:
-
- plain neckline

- Discreet pockets integrated into the seam for the dress version
👗 One pattern, several versions
With Mookie, you can choose:

A versatile design, perfect for mixing up your styles whilst maintaining an elegant base.
