Description
This Trench dress has so many options that you can definitely say you get more than one product here. Made from organic silk with print inspired by the watercolors of Irene Monat Stern.
It’s details are inspired by BITE signature Trench coat including back yoke, buttoned epaulettes, back vent and sleeve straps. The waist can be adjusted thanks to a delicate belt in the same fabric. It can be worn both as a dress or open as a light coat over a pair of trousers. The collar is removable and so are the sleeve straps to make a more feminine and classic dress-look.
