With our main office located in Palm Valley, Melissa was drawn to the beautiful blues, flowers & chic style when creating this print for our new V-neck Ruffle Maxi Dress. This carefree maxi is an easy go-to for any occasion made with fabric so comfortable you’ll never want to take it off (& it has pockets!).
