Plum broderie, structured bodice, delicate straps, tiered midi skirt, intricate cutwork detailing — the Poetry Jiselle in Plum is available from size 6 to 18, from R649.

Plum is a colour with presence. Deep, rich, and immediately distinctive — it photographs beautifully in natural light, works across seasons, and carries an elegance that brighter colours often miss. The Jiselle in Plum takes the same exceptional construction as the classic Black colourway and gives it a different occasion language: this is the dress for winter weddings, autumn garden parties, Mother of the Bride occasions, and formal events where you want a colour that makes a considered impression rather than a loud one. Intricate broderie cutwork fabric in deep plum, structured bodice with delicate straps, softly tiered midi skirt — familiar silhouette, completely different mood.

Poetry is a well-loved South African brand with a loyal following and a reputation for quality fabric and considered design. Available in the full size range, 6 through 18.
