A new favorite
The crepe is gorgeous and the Vermiglio is even richer in person. I wore the Octavia to an evening event and felt wonderful — fully lined, no slip needed.
A Roman idea, cut for occasion
The Octavia takes the discipline of classical dress — line, proportion, restraint — and reads it as a modern midi dress for weddings, the opera and occasions that ask for more.
Part of the Faustina collection, the Octavia is built around structured recycled crepe that holds a clean line. The crepe falls to mid-calf, fully lined and finished so it photographs as beautifully as it moves.
Offered in the imperial palette — Vermiglio, Basalt, Cornelia — it is a dress designed to be kept and returned to, not discarded with the season.
Why she'll wear it again
Considered inside. Real linings, French-finished seams and a concealed closure — the details you feel before you see.
Made to last. Crepe chosen for the way it holds its shape, so the Octavia keeps its line through a long evening.
Made responsibly. Cut from recycled fabric and produced ethically — a lighter footprint, an heirloom result.
