inspiration and fabrics for the laureles top + dress
Hello again!
I recently shared the Laureles Top + Dress with you. Today, I’m excited to dive deeper into some fabric and styling suggestions for this pattern.
While these images may not be an exact match to the Laureles design, I love the fabrics they’ve used. The softness of cottons and linens really complements this minimalist aesthetic. If you're thinking of cropping your Laureles to mimic this style, it’s definitely doable.
Another idea I adore is pairing your Laureles with neutral tones. Monochromatic outfits are timeless and versatile. Imagine wearing your Laureles with our Lisboa Walking Shorts or Montauk Trousers for a cohesive and stylish look.
If you’re leaning towards the View B dress version, there are countless ways to customize it. Adding a tiered hem could give it a playful twist. You could also experiment with different textures or even add embellishments for a unique touch.
Take a look at these inspiring examples:
When choosing fabric, the options are endless. For the top, lightweight wovens like cotton, linen, chambray, or even textured fabrics like eyelet or lace work beautifully. For the dress, I recommend something with a bit of drape, such as rayon or silk noil. I used a black seersucker for View A, which was surprisingly forgiving despite its stiffness. For View B, the silk noil added incredible texture while maintaining a smooth and vibrant finish—perfect for draping.
For more inspiration, check out my Liesl + Co Laureles Square-Neck Top + Dress Pinterest board. I’m always adding new ideas, so feel free to follow along.
In the meantime, grab your copy of the Laureles pattern in either paper or digital form. As always, I love seeing what you create with this pattern. Tag us using #lieslandco and #laurelestopdress—I truly enjoy seeing how you make these designs uniquely your own.
