Bailey keeps it loose and lets the print do the talking.

The Bailey is a kaftan cut from 100% viscose, loose fitting throughout. It's made in a peach and pale blue stripe print, cut so the stripes run symmetrically through the dress rather than falling at random. A palm tree print runs through the fabric, and the back yoke is gathered, with the palm print carried through as a feature. It's made in Cape Town, South Africa, by a small all-female team, in a limited run.

The stripe isn't left to fall where it lands. It's cut so the peach and pale blue run symmetrically down the dress, front and back. The sleeve sits dropped and slightly puffed, gathered into a cuff with a button and loop closure.

Side slits keep it moving. Loose through the body, the Bailey does the work a kaftan is meant to do: covers you, cools you, still looks like you thought about it.

FAQ

Does the Bailey run true to size, and which size should I take?
The Bailey is a loose-fitting kaftan, so it's forgiving through sizing. Our model is 1.70m and wears a size 32. Take your usual Signature by Des size for a relaxed, easy fit.

What fabric is it made from and how does it wear?
The Bailey is made from 100% viscose. It has a soft, fluid drape that suits the loose kaftan shape, and moves easily rather than clinging.

How do I wash and care for it?
Hand wash only. This protects the viscose fabric and keeps the stripe print and palm print looking sharp over time.

What can I wear it with?
The Bailey is designed to be worn loose and unfussed, sandals on, nothing else required. The side slits allow easy movement whether you're sitting or walking.

Where is it made?
The Bailey is made in Cape Town, South Africa, by a small all-female team, as part of a limited run.
