Fashion influencer, blogger, and activist Amy Appleton Dreyer was photographed wearing our elegant Pure Gown at the famed Bowery Hotel in New York City, just ahead of New York Fashion Week in September 2024. The look reflects her signature effortlessly chic style, seamlessly blending timeless sophistication with modern edge.

A Vision in the Pure Gown
The Pure Gown—crafted from fine stretch cotton jacquard and soft viscose—features a strapless, fitted bodice that enhances the silhouette, while the relaxed full skirt cascades elegantly to the floor. Amy styled it with a silver Prada handbag, silver slingback pumps to elongate the look, and a structured black blazer in select shots, adding a bold contrast and demonstrating the gown’s styling versatility.
A key feature of this look is its sustainable design—both our gown and the blazer are crafted from deadstock fabric and recycled materials, reflecting a commitment to conscious fashion without compromising style.
The Versatility of the Pure Gown
The Pure Gown’s adaptable design allows it to be styled in multiple ways, making it a timeless investment piece:
Pair with delicate jewelry and sleek heels for formal occasions.
Layer with a leather jacket and statement boots for an unexpected twist.
Keep it simple with strappy sandals and a woven clutch for a refined, relaxed look.
