La Cocteau channels the women of the early and mid-20th century French Riviera. They take up space in our collective imagination. Confidantes, and lovers who moved effortlessly between art, intimacy, and public life on the Côte d'Azur. 

Cut from black Italian jersey with a fluid, weighted drape, the silhouette is elongated and precise. A high bateau neckline anchors the front with elegant restraint, slashing straight across, while the open back dips cleanly to the high waist, balancing composure and line with noticeable femininity.

The bodice is double-layered for structure and ease, holding its line. Armholes are subtly reinforced for a smooth, tailored fit. The skirt falls straight with a side slit to mid-thigh, allowing movement with grace.

Style with modern kitten heels to sharpen the line.

Made entirely in France, from first cut to final stitch.
