Meet Brielle, a long sleeve plaid maxi dress that pairs a sleek navy bodice with a skirt full of character. Below the waist, panels of brown-and-blue plaid are pieced into the deep navy fabric, creating a patchwork effect that gives this plaid dress its signature look. The surface has a soft, brushed, suede-look finish that adds depth to the color.

The bodice skims close to the body, then opens into a sweeping skirt that swirls with every step. It is an easy fall dress for weekends, gallery visits and dinners out, and it carries just as naturally into winter with a coat and boots layered on top. If you like vintage-inspired pieces with a relaxed, storybook edge, this is a dress you will reach for from the first cool morning through the holidays.
