Product Insights & Style Tips

Designed to stand out, the Palmerston is a study in sculpted movement. The asymmetric peplum waist creates a bold, asymmetric volume, while a striking drape draws across the shoulders for a fashion-forward line. Seam detailing contours the figure, and the tweed holds its shape with crisp confidence, giving the dress a polished presence that feels at home from early meetings to after-hours dinners.

With its clean silhouette and a smooth, lined interior, the Palmerston sits comfortably on the body. The outer tweed is a blend of cotton and polyester with a touch of other fibers that helps it keep form as you move, while the acetate-rich lining adds effortless drape against the skin. It layers easily over a fine knit or shirt and peeks from beneath a tailored coat, transitioning from day to night with a steady, controlled line. Dry clean only.

The Fold continues its dialogue with heritage textures reimagined in crisp, modern shapes. Palmerston reads as a statement piece that pairs with sleek boots and minimal outerwear, letting the waist detail and shoulder drape do the talking. It’s the kind of dress that nods to tradition while staying unmistakably current.
