My favorite words from Emily Dickinson are, "To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee — one clover, and a bee, and revery." So I have named this dress after her. She tended her garden and pressed hundreds of wildflowers into a herbarium years before anyone read a line of her poetry — flowers were her first language. She almost never left her family's home in Amherst, yet from that small world she wrote nearly 1,800 poems and remade what a poem could be, entirely on her own terms and mostly for herself. She asked no one's permission and chased no one's approval; she simply paid close, radical attention to a clover, a bee, a slant of afternoon light.
Eucalyptus green strewn with pink — the soft grey-green of eucalyptus leaves and a whole meadow of little blooms, the colors of a garden just waking up. The neckline scoops gently and the straps adjust to sit right where you want them. The skirt swings short and easy in soft tiers, landing at the thigh — the kind of dress you throw on for a summer errand or a barefoot afternoon and forget you're even wearing. Light, cool, and made to move.
Available in matching Mommy & Me sizes for little girls ages 2–6. Each complete with pockets.
Fabric: Every Emily is hand-block printed in Jaipur using a craft 500 years older than fast fashion — wooden blocks carved by hand, dipped in natural dye, and pressed into the fabric one stamp at a time. Designed on our homestead in rural Ohio, made in Jaipur by families who have practiced this tradition for generations. Because each dress is made entirely by hand, no two are identical — slight variations in color and pattern are not flaws, they are fingerprints. The mark of something real. No chlorinated bleaches, azo dyes, chemical washes, sprays, or preservatives are used to make or applied to our Clarity dresses. We are toxin free by design.
Care: Wash inside out with other 100% cotton fabrics on a delicate cold cycle. Hang dry. Never bleach.
