Guilhermina Embroidered Linen Shirt Dress

Hand-embroidered in Pernambuco, Brazil, on pure linen. Made in very small numbers.

The Guilhermina is a midi shirt dress in natural linen, the warm oatmeal tone the brand calls estopa, with soft pink and lilac peonies embroidered by artisans in Pernambuco. The flowers rise from the hem, climb along one sleeve and open across the shoulders, so the dress looks like a painting from every angle. Each bloom is real needlework, with the small variations that make every piece its own.

A classic shirt collar with a collar stand, covered buttons from neckline to hem and at the cuffs, 3/4 sleeves and a matching belt that marks the waist: the lines are timeless, and the embroidery is what everyone notices first. Side pockets make it as practical as it is beautiful.

This is the dress for the moments that matter: a garden brunch, a baptism, an Easter or Mother's Day lunch, a gallery opening, a vacation dinner by the sea. Clear heels or nude sandals and pearl earrings are all it needs.

Pure linen breathes on warm Florida days and softens beautifully with every wear. The dress is unlined, light and fresh against the skin.

Marie Mercié produces in limited quantities, entirely by hand. This is a piece you will not see on anyone else at the party, and one you will keep for years.
