The Charbon Doux (Soft Charcoal) Dress is an understated gem of French Vintage style. Crafted from soft, medium-weight cotton in a rich charcoal tone, this piece dates from approximately 1930–1950, blending utilitarian simplicity with timeless elegance.
The silhouette is beautifully balanced with a gently fitted bodice, subtle pleats at the waist that create graceful volume through the skirt, and a clean, sleeveless shape perfect for layering or wearing on its own. A delicate back closure button completes the design with a quiet nod to vintage practicality.
Hand picked in Paris, France, this one-of-a-kind dress is perfect for everything from a relaxed day in the studio to a refined evening layered with a linen jacket.
