THE PRINT
Dragonfly
Our Dragonfly print is inspired by the ones that skim across Singapore’s ponds and gardens. In Peranakan culture, dragonflies are symbols of good fortune, harmony, and graceful transformation. In BELOVED, the dragonfly reflects our own journey of becoming, always in motion, yet always finding stillness in its own reflection.

THE STORY
Our Bustier Box Pleats Dress from Reckless Ericka’s BELOVED collection brings together playful structure and soft nostalgia. The pin tucked bustier is its defining gesture, crafted to frame the décolletage with precision while introducing a rhythmic texture that feels both modern and romantic. From the waist, the skirt opens into generous box pleats, creating a full, statuesque volume that moves with a refined sweep. The bodice’s print adds a graphic dimension, playing against the deep navy skirt in a way that sharpens the entire composition. A striped sash ties the elements together, cinching the waist with a confident, polished contrast.

For Work
Layer our lightweight Cardigans or fitted jacket over the dress, add pointed flats or low heels.

For Night Out
Remove the layers and highlight the neckline with sculptural jewellery, slipping into statement heels to echo the skirt’s dramatic flow.

For Weekends
Soften the mood by pairing it with minimalist sandals and a relaxed tote, letting the dress move freely with each step.

Our Bustier Box Pleats Dress carries intention in every detail, offering a silhouette that is expressive, poised and endlessly versatile.
