Learn moreThe Joia Shirt Dress is a midi-length, button-through dress with a neat shirt collar. From the departure lounge to the office, the Joia dress is a transeasonal hero piece. Despite its elegance, the Joia Shirt Dress offers an exceedingly comfortable fit due to its short capped sleeves, dropped shoulder, gathered waist, and functional buttons that can be unbuttoned up to the waist seam. The dress is crafted from a silky ECOVERO blend - an ELKâ„¢ environmentally preferred fibre. The limited seasonal Calla Print is elegant and contemporary, with a touch of surrealism. The blend of vibrant colours, floral elements, and digital distortion creates a canvas for individual interpretation. The print pairs easily with black and navy wardrobe staples, whilst also pairing seamlessly with vibrant hero accessories.
The Calla Print is a yardage print and the print placement will vary on each garment, making each piece unique.

Through our work with not-for-profit organisation Canopy, we are sourcing more than 95% of our viscose fibres from producers that have a green shirt rating according to the most current CanopyStyle Hot Button Report. This rating is a reflection of Canopy's assessment of the producers' engagement with CanopyStyle audits, their contribution to conservation, innovation initiatives, sourcing policies, transparency and chemical management.
Manufacturer: Jimmy Fashions We have been working with Jimmy Fashions since 2010.

In early 2024, the Jimmy had solar panels installed on the rooftop of the factory, to help provide renewable energy for their operations.
The factory also undergoes annual SMETA social compliance audits, which are conducted by a third party and provide transparency into worker wellbeing and wages. We have been sourcing our linen fabric from Tongling Worldbest for many years. This fabric mill is certified under the OEKO-TEX 100 Standard, ensuring the fabric is free from harmful substances.
