Long slip dress with thin straps and side slits. Made of ramie with a print that is based on a watercolor made by the creative director of Cortana. In the photo the model wears the matching Lyn stole tied at the waist.
Ramie is one of the oldest and strongest natural fibers, and has been used for thousands of years. It is known for its ability to maintain shape, have few wrinkles and for its silky sheen.
Ramie is a sustainable fabric as it requires less water and pesticides than other textile crops, grows quickly, and yields a high production per hectare, thus minimizing its environmental impact. Additionally, it is a biodegradable and recyclable fabric.
The ramie fibers in Cortana's collections are woven by traditional methods. This can create slight variations in yarn thickness across different garments. These subtle differences contribute to the distinct charm of our designs, and these characteristics are an integral part of the artisanal quality of natural fibers and yarns.
