IRIS CHORE DRESS [ Greige ]

Inspired by the quiet restraint of Iris, the protagonist of <The Match Factory Girl, 1990>, the Iris Chore Dress reinterprets the practical French chore dress of the 1920s through a contemporary lens.

The character’s calm yet resolute emotional depth meets the restrained utility of classic French workwear, coming together in a naturally balanced and timeless silhouette. Crafted from 100% cotton with a washed finish, the fabric offers a soft, dry touch. Drawing from historical women’s workwear, the pattern is designed with a considered balance of ease and mobility. As a result, it does not cling to the body, providing a comfortable fit while allowing the silhouette to fall naturally. A lapel collar, small front pockets, and a back belt detail reinterpret the functional elements of vintage workwear with a refined, feminine sensibility. In particular, the back belt gently defines the silhouette, creating a softly flared A-line.

Built with durability in mind, the garment features sturdy construction and resilient finishing, translating the practicality of original workwear into a modern context. The silhouette flows naturally along the body, creating a subtly streamlined appearance while maintaining a clean and composed feel. Suitable for wearing on its own or layered with a basic T-shirt, it offers versatility across both everyday settings and more formal occasions.

Rooted in classic workwear, the Iris Chore Dress blends vintage mood with refined femininity. Experience Outfitters’ modern interpretation of a timeless workwear dress.
