I Paint My Dream Bohéme Slip Dress

Step into a masterpiece! This piece celebrates the vibrant brilliance of Van Gogh’s iconic paintings, and is our heartfelt tribute to the bravery and beauty of the artist. We combined several of Van Gogh’s works to create this print — including his infamous “Roses” (1890), painted during his time at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum, which captures the delicate beauty of blooming flowers as a symbol of hope. “Green Wheat Fields” and “Olive Trees” (1890), created in the same period, evoke the serene expanse of the countryside, and reflect Van Gogh’s deep connection to nature and the changing seasons. And the words “I dream my painting and I paint my dream”, written in the book on the table, is our very favourite quote from the artist himself. As a significant final touch, we added the eye from Van Gogh’s “Self Portrait with a Straw Hat” (1887), a painting which offers an intimate glimpse into the artist’s soul.

The adjustable straps, oversized cut, and soft, flowy bamboo viscose make our Bohéme dresses a wardrobe staple for layering, running errands, dancing, lounging or napping — and they’re also a must-have for travel, wherever you roam. Like all of our slip dresses, this piece is reversible! 

Please note: The nature of our soft bamboo/wood viscose means it’s slightly sheer, so we recommend layering it with our Étoile slip (or any other slip you have) when wearing it with bare legs. Our model in the photos is wearing the dress without a slip.

100% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as bamboo and wood). Machine wash gentle or handwash and hang to dry. Iron to finish if needed.

Adjustable straps. Dress measurements: S/M — length 132cm at shortest strap adjustment, 142cm at longest. Width 52cm (across bust, underarm to underarm), 54cm (across waist seam). L/XL — 134 cm length at shortest strap adjustment, 144cm at longest. Width 57cm (across bust, underarm to underarm), 59 cm (across waist seam). Model is 5’7, and is wearing a size S/M for reference.

How To Wear

+

With its vibrant palette and painterly charm, this dreamy dress is a true wardrobe chameleon. Light and breezy, we love it styled with a distressed denim jacket and sandals for warm-weather adventures — but we’ll be wearing it with a cropped sweater and boots on cooler days, too. This piece is also the most romantic lounging dress for the weekend — ideal for early mornings creating in the studio, curling up with a book, or drifting off on a little afternoon nap. Heading out to dinner? Layer on the matching Opera Duster and add platform sandals, beaded earrings & a statement ring! Artsy, bohemian and effortlessly chic :)

Van Gogh had a gift for finding beauty in the simplest things — a field of wheat, a vase of flowers, the shifting light on a quiet morning. It was this way of seeing that shaped his art, turning ordinary moments into luminous, living works that seem to reach out to us across time. In just over a decade, he created more than 2,000 artworks, including around 900 paintings — a staggering burst of creativity for someone who only picked up a brush in his late twenties. Despite being known for his bold, swirling skies and dramatic brushwork, Van Gogh was also deeply tender in the way he saw the world — once writing to his brother Theo, "If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere." Though we think of him as a master today, he often doubted himself — even signing some letters: "your brother, the one who fails at everything”. But even in the face of darkness and struggle, he kept painting, kept creating — as if art itself was his fearless way of reaching for the light. 

The Poem

Sun Salutation
for Van Gogh

Thank you for the sun
in your brushstrokes
I have basked
in the light of it
on hard days
in tight rooms
when I open the window
and lift my face
like a flower. When I unfurl
my awe and let it run
through the fields.
It returns to me
washed in gold.

Isn’t that
what we must do?
Over and over,
choose light.
