Ramie is a noble natural fiber made from nettles. It is significantly more expensive and difficult to produce than cotton. It has a natural silk-like luster, is stronger than linen, and doesn't rot or mildew easily.

Symbolism and Craft
In Hesiod's Theogony, Aphrodite was born from the sea foam and carried to the shore of Cyprus by the winds. The print on this dress places her symbols in that same landscape: roses, which grew wherever she stepped on land; seashells from the waters that formed her; pomegranates, the fruit associated with her temples; birds that accompanied her arrival; and floating pearls scattered across the composition like offerings returned by the tide. The gold accents trace through the vines like late afternoon light on water.
The ramie-cotton blend is the detail that separates this dress from anything else in the collection. Ramie has been cultivated for thousands of years in East Asia and carries a natural luster close to silk with the structural integrity of linen. It breathes in heat, dries fast, resists odor naturally, and holds its shape through a long day. At 80% ramie and 20% cotton, the fabric has the drape and softness that pure ramie sometimes lacks, and it will feel better in a year than it does today because the fiber responds to washing by getting softer rather than breaking down.
