Franka Silk Mini Dress - Red

A dramatic expression of sculptural volume and form, the Franka Silk Mini Dress balances architectural design with fluid femininity. A structured bodice with a scooped neckline flows into an exaggerated drop waist, creating Van Der Kooij’s distinctive V-silhouette. The tulip-shaped skirt features deep pleats and a structured tulle underlay for body and shape. Short at the front with a cascading hem at the back, this piece evokes movement and theatre.
