Suraiya Cotton-Jersey Dress

Founded in 2016 by designer Marina Cortbawi, Brooklyn-based Merlette thoughtfully crafts its garments from all natural, high-quality materials (cotton, wools and silks) with bespoke finishes — perfect for building a timeless wardrobe.

The Suraiya dress is a draped tea-length silhouette in soft organic cotton jersey. A twist knot at the waist sculpts a flattering shape, while short sleeves and a flowing hem create a sense of effortless grace. Perfect for day or evening, it embodies timeless, understated elegance.
