THE PRINT
Acanthus
Cut leaves unfold in blue across soft ivory, their edges recalling ornament that has travelled through many hands before arriving on cloth. The motif feels both botanical and ceremonial, structured by its repeated forms yet softened by placement and colour. In ARRAYED, Acanthus becomes a sign of something kept, adapted and carried into the present.

THE COLOUR
Base: Ivory
Print: Powder blue, teal, periwinkle
Sash: Teal, ivory, perwinkle, pale blue, burnt orange, old rose

THE STORY
The Stand Collar Dual Box Pleat Dress from Reckless Ericka’s ARRAYED collection is designed to feel poised without effort. A micro Chinese collar frames a V-neck with a clean finish, and the button-down front runs the length of the dress through eleven buttons. The bodice is cut in the Acanthus print, blue leaves unfolding across soft ivory, then meets an ivory skirt at the waist where double box pleats open all around into an even, airy flare. Dolman sleeves follow the shoulder for ease of movement, and a detachable striped sash draws the waist in. Made in recycled microfiber with two side pockets, this is a fit-and-flare dress that moves with you and holds its shape.

For Work
Style it with Mary Janes, pointed flats or low block heels, keeping the sash tied neatly to define the waist. A light cardigan or blazer works well indoors, while minimal jewellery lets the Acanthus placement stay crisp.

For Night Out
For evening, tie the sash a little higher and add polished pumps, a small clutch and statement earrings. The blue print reads fresh under evening light, while the pleated skirt gives the dress a graceful sweep.

For Weekends
On weekends, keep it easy with leather flats or sandals and a casual crossbody. Wear the sash relaxed for comfort, or cinch it in when the day calls for more shape.
