A rust that leans more sunset than fall. Sits between our brown and orange, warmer than both. Mali is a handmade, hand-dyed backless maxi dress with tie shoulders, a ruffle hem, pockets, and a loose, flowy fit made for warm days, vacation nights, and easy resort dressing.
Each piece is hand dyed, so slight variation in color and pattern is part of its one-of-a-kind beauty.
