Ioana Hourglass, Maize & Blue Wax Prima Dona_6460a1e12f8fecb0f997d4fe

The Maize and Blue Wax is one of our favorites because you can wear it blue size up, or maize side up, all depending on if you’re feeling loudly powerful…or quietly powerful.  Same garment, different side. Just like all of us. 

We re-imagined the classic wrap dress into the super-flattering Ioana Hourglass in this maize and blue print that we fell in love with at first sight. She’s the perfect companion for when you need to feel your most bad@ss, whether you’re delivering that keynote, commanding the boardroom…or having an intimate dinner for two. You will receive a ridiculous number of compliments on this dress, so be ready for it! 

The Ioana Hourglass is made of this maize-and-blue and the reverse blue-and-maize Dutch wax fabric, is fully lined with silk and yes, there are pockets big enough to hold your phone and wallet, because it’s not 1735.  Since each dress is hand-tailored WHEN you order it, you can check out our size chart for what works for you OR can choose our made-to-measure option.

You’ll be a different person in five years and the world isn’t staying still either. Instead, introspect. Understand your strengths and what makes you tick. THEN grab opportunities when you see them. You don’t need to know where you’ll be next – know how to evaluate choices along the way.”
